No. Just looking at the maintenance guide. I do have graphite dust and have used it before..works great for locks. Did not know if you guys lub your door hinges and the door catch mechanism.
 
Graphite powder or Teflon Spray for locks and hinges. Grease based lubricants pick up dirt/gunk like crazy and should only be used in grease fittings.

I personally like Teflon spray (DuPont makes a good one you can get at Lowes) because it's self cleaning and lasts more or less forever.

Ok, I want you to stay by the phone. In about 15 minutes, a man will call you. Don't ask his name. He won't tell you his name.

He'll give you an address. You'll want to drive to this address, and on the way pick up $50 cash from the bank. Leave it on the front steps of the building at the address along with a slip of paper with your mailing information.

In a couple days, you'll get an envelope. When you open it, you'll find a card with directions to a *different* location from the first address you went to. Go to this address, and you'll see someone waiting for you. You don't need to ask how to tell he's waiting for you...you'll know.

This fellow will motion for you to follow him. You should follow him at a discreet distance, never making it apparent that you know who he is or that you are in any way connected to him. Once you've followed him for about 500 yards, he'll drop a slip of paper next to a park bench. Pick up this slip of paper.

On this slip of paper there will bFUCKING GOOGLE IT! JESUS!

Me, neither. My 10 year old max has a stiff front passenger door, probably from lack of use, but I've not bothered to do anything about it.

 
my maxima has a stiff passengar door, I used lithium grease once on it worked for the time but has worn off since. Since I rarely have a passenger its been a non-issue.
