Rear Door Weatherstrip: Service and Repair

Door Seals

Door seals are equipped at factory with sealant, applied to door flange and then rolled on.

NOTE:

-

During removal of seal, sealant is distributed on interior side of seal and flanks are bent up easily. If seal is re-installed, sealing performance and
proper seating are no longer guaranteed.

-

For this reason, every completely removed seal must be replaced with a so-called hammer-stroke seal.

-

For partially removed seals, seal flanks must be pressed together before installation.

NOTE:  Trim must be removed in order to remove door seals.
