go to your local auto parts store.....they will have a white lithium grease that you can spray that will cure problem.

LUBRICATION!! Try some graphite door hinge lubricant or just plain old WD-40 will work. White lithium will work fine too but be careful not to get it all over or you'll be wearing it every time you get in and out of the vehicle. Could also be possible you need new pins and bushings. Grab hold of the bottom of the door and pick up and down on it. If you feel slop then you need to replace pins and bushings.

get a bottle of powder graphite and put some on the hinges as well as the runner. see if this doesn't help.
