Creaking Clutch and Driver Door

Ok, my door started creeking awhile back and ive heard it was a usual problem in the SE and ive asked how to fix it before but never got around to it and now i have forgotten so any help would be nice...

Also a couple months ago my clutch started to creak when i would let it out, i had it replaced about a year ago so i know its still good, but dont know why its making that noise again any help would be appreciated.

If by door creak, you mean it creaks when you open it (or close it), mine did that. Grease fixed it. Not lubricant that you spray on, but grease that's the consistency of petroleum jelly.

If the door creaks as you drive you need new hindges. If you open your door and "lift up" on it you will see it moves up and down. I think I pad around 130 bucks installed at a nisan dealer. The sound drove me NUTS!

I've had the clutch creek for some time now. It seems to come from the clutch master cylinder piston. I'm not worried about this and I keep a close eye on the clutch fluid level.

I figure the clutch will eventually let me down. I am running the original one with 153,000 miles on it.
