Hi, I don't know if this is common but does anybody else's MacBook make low pitched squeel sound when you open it, or close it at a non-fast speed?

Should I get the Mac store to oil it or something? Will it cost money? Or is it nothing to worry about?

Thanks.

your hinge is misaligned. While it is nothing to worry about, it is something you can have fixed for free.

!WARNING!: It took them 3 times to actually fix mine correctly.
