Has anyone experienced those funny annoying noises you hear from your door lock mechanism? Well, here's the fix for it.

The noise comes from the two bolts that are located in your mounting hole area when they're loose.

To have it fixed, get a 10mm socket and ratchet wrench, use it to tighten the two bolts located in your mounting hole area, and that's it. Funny annoying noise gone.

Tip: I did put a tad bit of Loctite on each one to be safe. You can also do the same too.
