Squeak while opening driver door

Hi all,

I got a problem, whenever i open my driver door i think the hinge there got sound.....

Tried WD40, Tried Castrol "Red" Butter, Tried some other sprays from the workshop but after a while it will come back. Close and open no problem only when i pull my handle from inside and opening and from closed position to full open in the midst it will have squeak sound.

Anyone got advise???

My Ride is a E36 Coupe.....

1st try checking the hinge and the holder etc whether anything loose; both sides the one on the door and the other end attached to car body.
if nothing wrong with the hardware, best is still workshop 黑油 grease.
however, from your description where it make noise while opened 1/2way, it sure sounded like the same old prob with my previous E36....never bothered with it and then end up hinge dropped off cos one of the screws were loose or corroded.
hope it helps.
