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.

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!
