The piston on my fridge door is annoyingly noisy this year - especially during the opening action.
I’ve tried rubbing olive oil on the exposed shaft when open but that doesn’t seem to be helping. That trick normally works for me on squeaky door hinges.
Any tips?

You could try a Teflon spray or McLube (liquid gold) Sailkote. Does sound like the seal on the strut is on the way out

Didn't you install a new stereo recently? It is clearly not up load enough if you can hear the fridge hinge ;-)

Try these guys, they may be able to regas it or provide a replacement. I use them for cars gasstrutservices.co.nz/products-services/marine/
