Lube all the hinges with lithium grease, lube the latch points with silicone grease, lube the seals with shin-etsu grease.

YAAYUhh!

Funny, I just started getting this problem too, mainly when the top is down... a creaking sound right by my head I can't pinpoint, coming from the top. Guess it's time to get out the grease.

This is for when the top creaks when it is up not when it is down.

If you start to develop blindness please see an MD.
