Repair Procedure
Use one of the following methods to remedy the condition:
Method A — Loose/Damaged Screw
- Remove the screw that attached the door check to the pillar.
- Check for damage to the screw’s threads.
- If no damage, reinstall and tighten the screw to the specified torque.
- If damaged, replace the screw and tighten the screw to the specified torque.

Method B — Damaged Door Check
- Remove the door trim and related components by following the procedure in the 2000 MY Avalon Repair Manual, pages 30—8 and BO—9.
- Remove the door check assembly.
- Install a service part door check assembly. Reinstall the screw if threads are not damaged, otherwise replace the screw.
- Reinstall door trim and related components.
- Cycle the door to confirm the noise was corrected.
- PREPS SURFACE: Pre-waxing glaze that prepares the surface for wax while offering deep reflections and high gloss.
- BEST CAR GLOSS: Conditioning oils add depth of color and maximum gloss prior to waxing, especially on dark colored cars
- REMOVE SWIRLS: Quickly and gently removes fine swirls and towel marks for mirror-like reflections
- SAFE FOR CLEAR COATS: Safe and on all glossy paints, including clear coats
- FLEXIBLE APPLICATION: Safe and effective by hand or dual action polisher like Meguiar's MT300 Dual Action Polisher
