Replacement front door seals

Post by Grifter » Sat Sep 09, 2017 10:43 am

Hi,

I'm looking to replace the door seals on my E53, the seals are pretty degraded, the doors make a metallic slam when shut and the wind noise is getting louder, so time for some new seals! It's just the front set that are the issue.

Any idea where I can get some from? Looked online and tbh I'm struggling to find a supplier, I haven't tried the local BMW dealer yet or have any idea on part numbers. So any help would be appreciated.

If you put the last 7 characters of your VIN into Realoem (on line and up to date BMW parts database) in 'Serial Number' it will pull up your model.

Door seals should be under 'Vehicle Trim' and you will get the part numbers to hunt for elsewhere.  It is likely that only a Dealer will hold them.

This is the page for my 2005 E53....

Cotswoldbmwmini is a member on here and a BMW Dealer who offers discounts.  Worth sending them a PM for prices.  Usually overnight delivery too  :)
