I am just use to it now. Not sure what you can do.I sure as hell do not want my car to smell like WD40, that for the suggestion Steve.... You could undo the bolts that hold the visor in place and take it out of the car. Then apply WD400 to the pivot point and let it dry for about 30 mins and then put it back. I would be more inclinded to get some sort of grease in there, but the question is how to get it in there in the first place.

Then you get WD40 EVERYWHERE FFS.With Perths summer heat, it will dry up within a week and start creaking again.I need to figure out how to get some grease/KY gel in there.

I was thinking maybe silicon spray with needle. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89403-fg-sun-visor-creaking/#findComment-1506713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
