The port flap is making an annoying grinding noise and since my car is no longer under warranty the cost is $320 to replace. Should I fix that or would it be ok to live with that noise?

Thanks!

Won't hurt to try...I'd squirt a bunch of WD40 into the hinge area and into the latch and work the door in/out a bunch of times.

I actually did that but it didn’t help. The lock seems to be faulty. I wonder if $320 is reasonable price to replace it.
