Squeak when opening door...

When I push against the large black handle on the driver side door, it will make a squeaking noise. Does anyone know of a quick fix for this problem?

Some grease but I wouldn't do it coz it either makes the door too free or it attracts dirt. Maybe u can try some dry lubricant

The squeak is coming from the panel components, not the hinges or anything.

Oh can't help there I have the same thing happening to me, the only way to do it is some doublesided tape but I didn't wanna do it coz u know how the tapes get over some time of sun's heat.
