TO BE UPDATED LATER
Leaks can be caused by badly fitted seals. In
particular, areas with radii -Arrow- must be
thoroughly checked.
Door seals can develop leaks due to:
Damaged or expanded seals.
Ageing.
Insufficient contact pressure.
Inadequate contact area for seal on body part.
Fastening bolts could be loose or clips incorrectly
positioned on door modules.
Corrective action
Depending on the door seals used, different sealing
methods can be used.
NOTE: The drainage holes on the underside of the
door may not be blocked - if they are, clean them.
Defective films and foam seals must be replaced.
Once the adhesive surfaces have been cleaned,
plastic films must be stuck with double-sided
adhesive tape or replaced.
Leaky foam seals are sealed with Butyl tape or
replaced.
Plastic door modules are fitted with a weatherstrip,
which cannot be replaced. Seal the leaky point with
Butyl tape or replace the part.
Uneven welded flange thickness because of
several layers of body panels or production
tolerances.
Kinks.
The contact pressure of a seal can be determined
using a strip of paper. If a strip of paper trapped in
the closed door can be pulled out easily, the
contact pressure is too low.
