Squeek
 

my door locks squeek very loudly when locking or unlocking....
is this a normal issue? or something unique to my svx?

Can't say if it's common or not for others but mine don't squeek. Just hear the servo motor turn as it locks/unlocks.

it's a very loud squeek, maybe i'll just squirt some teflon lubricant into the door locks and see what it does.....once i get the car

mine used to, but they stopped.

my '94 with 43K went through this. some part of the mechanism inside the door was worn (and replaced by the subaru dealer where i bought the car). don't remember if it was the servo itself or and actuator or other (it's all in the file cabinet at home). all i remember was it was something more than a need for lubrication.

Try using white lithium grease. It seemed to work for me!
