Driver's side car door now suddenly squeaks LOUDLY when it is opened.

Most likely co-incidence but it is possible some foreign object has got into the door hinge or most likely the door check strap orifice. Open the door fully and check both hinges and the check strap, lubricate each one at a time to see if this illiminates the noise.

you are kidding right?As a professional mechanic that's up there with ,I had my oil changed and now my ashtray squeaks it did not squeak before.Lube up the door wind check mechanism, stop blaming,although you did take it to Sears!

What's the problem?Click and Clack unable to answer this one for you?If it was that upsetting for you ,then maybe you should have taken your car back to the scene of the crime.Find a proper place to take your VW for repairs,cause Sears ain't it.If they have anybody in the service area old enough to shave I would be surprised.You take a nice car to a slap dash hack place then have the nut to Complain?Sorry you got exactly what you paid for.
