Another option would be a can of Silicone spray, just in case the 3 in 1 oil still makes the rubber door mount parts too "grabby." (Silicone typically has a more glistening effect on rubber).

If the 3 'n One Oil OR Silicone spray doesn't quite solve the binding, there's also a spray oil called Tri-Flow, which is perfect in reducing friction with "metal-on-metal" contact points. I used Tri-Flow to free up and "quiet" a clutch-actuating linkage point in the engine bay of my 5-speed car.
If the 3-in-One oil is the best fix, let us know! However, you will STILL find Silicone Spray a useful purchase for myriad of other uses, (such as the aluminum worm-drive slide-tracks used by our slide out mechanisms).
(Caution, this post represents only my humble 2 cents based on years of lubrication experience....)
But proceed carefully..... remembering that Clark Griswald had once been noted for his expertise in
"exterior illumination" previous to Christmas, 1987, anyway.![Embarrassed]( "Embarrassed")
Merry Christmas, fellow Podders.
