This can be a number of things as I have experienced in the past.

1 - The clutch cover is rubbing against the bottom case which likely has been bent / dented or distorted in some way (The edge of the case should be nice and straight when viewed from the side).

1 - The black plastic clutch cover at the back side is likely rubbing against the bottom case which likely has been bent / dented or distorted in some way (The edge of the case should be nice and straight when viewed from the side). You may notice that it is touching or scraping on the bottom case when opening and closing the display. (Highly likely).
2 - The screws have been over tightened again possible bending the case towards the clutch cover (Unlikely).
3 - The hinges have worked lose (Is there any play when you open the display and move it back and forth slightly?).
