ND-40 weight motor oil. Been there done that....
Trust me. You will thank me many months from now.
You will think you have installed new doors.
It seems I can't read and comprehend. I do NOT know what is best for car doors. For some reason I thought you were talking about garage door hinges. I retract my previous statement as
it applies to GARAGE door hinges. Not car door hinges. It seems I am having a hard day.
Please DON'T put 40 weight on your car door hinges. I made a mistake!
I used leftover 5w-30 in a squirt can and almost two years later the hinges on the car and truck still seem fine. I don’t think 40wt would be a problem. My tundras service manual recommends motor oil. I think most people (I’d wager at least as 95% people) don’t use any lube at all and deal with having the aggravation of shutting the doors harder than you have to.
