I also lubed some of the joints on the top mechanism and suddenly it's a lot quieter . Still get some noise when the seals rub together but otherwise is pretty quiet now.
Where and what did you lube it with?
Thanks

White lithium grease. I lubed anything that moved on a mated surface that I could see/reach.
