Ralf,

For a repair procedure check the archives. Ron Galbraith post a detail procedure and I believe others have as well.

Subject: [LML] FW: Door seal 4P

Dear subscribers,

 

I know we had this discussion several times already... At that time I did not pay that close attention because I just replaced my inflatable door seal with a new one and I thought I should be fine for a couple of years.

 

Coming home last night I noticed the door seal pump cycling. The door seal has been used for almost a year now with about 120 hrs on it.  I could hear it blowing from the door seal - I think it is coming from the top of the door near my head from the seam where the door seal is glued together. I will look at it closer tonight or tomorrow.

 

Is there a preferred method of repair (procedure/material) or should I get a new one (probably 1500$ by now and a pain to do a nice job without damaging the paint too much)

 

 

Thanks for your input

 

Ralf
