Description

This door seal is a crucial component for weatherproofing vehicle doors, preventing the ingress of water, dust, and wind. It's used on the perimeter of door frames to create a tight seal when the door is closed. This MAN door seal, with MPN N1014012313, is sized at 40 x 40 x 2150 mm. It ensures a comfortable and quiet cabin experience by reducing road noise and drafts, while also protecting the vehicle's interior from the elements and potential corrosion.

Key Features & Benefits

These seals, sometimes called weatherstripping, do a few key things. They create a tight closure around the door when it’s shut, blocking out water, dust, wind, and noise. They also protect the paint around the door frame from getting chipped or rubbed, and they help the door latch securely. Some even have a little give to them, which helps absorb vibrations while you’re driving. Think of it as the first line of defense against the elements. It’s that rubber or plastic edging you see all around the door opening. It’s attached to either the door itself or the car’s body, and it compresses when you close the door. This compression is what makes the seal, kind of like squeezing a balloon shut. Without it, you’d feel every draft, hear a lot more road noise, and potentially get water leaking into the cabin. It acts like a shield against the outside world, honestly.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, besides comfort, it's crucial for preventing rust and corrosion around your door frames and inside the door itself. Water getting in there can really do a number on things over time. You’ll notice if a door seal starts to go bad – you'll probably hear more wind noise while driving, feel a draft, or see water stains inside the car after it rains. A worn – out seal can also make it harder to close the door securely. You can find replacements pretty easily, Fixparts Online carries a good selection, and replacing them is often a straightforward job, depending on the car, of course. It’s one of those parts that doesn't get much attention until it fails, but it really makes a difference.
