Squeaky wing...

Ok, maybe I am paranoid...

But when I hit my manual button to raise the tail it is like an old lady, it is loud and creaky and sounds like it is having trouble raising. But when I drive I do not hear it (well I am going 74 mph). Also I know there is a warning light that will appear if it is not raising at 74mph and it does not light up so I suppose there is not a problem.....

Does yours do that? Should I like, oil it or something.....

Mine makes the same noise. I was thinking about spraying so WD40 in certain areas.
