New door rubber.

Hi,

The seals between the door and rear windows are worn both sides. Anyone else replaced these? If so, where to go and how much?

There is a guide in the How To section of the forum mate. If you become a paid member you can get access to that section and a lot more (Including discounts from Karl on genuine Renault parts).

Its a very common problem. We had ours replaced under warranty a couple of months ago.

He won't be able to post in the Ask Karl section as its reserved for paid members IIRC?

I replaced mine with some plastic dome style strip from B&Q. It had a flat back with adhesive strip on the back. Just cut two pieces to size, peeled off the backing, pushed them up to the glass so they sat flush then pressed them down so they would bond. Worked a treat! Cost about £8 and difficult to tell as the plastic was the same shape as the original rubber.

The new ones we had fitted are different to the ones that came off burst.

http://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/ if you don't want to use Karl, membership is good but not if you're just going to use it for strips. Makes them more expensive than normal.

The ones Karl supplies are about £9 each.
I've just got some to replace mine but not got round to fitting them yet.

As said though, pay your £5 and et some good discounts;-)

Or just go to a local renault garage and save on the postage costs.

i think they must have improved them noddie as i had mine done 20 months ago and they are still like brand new,i've heard people saying there's are tatty after a year from new in the past!

my car is garaged though so maybe the weather isn't effecting them as much,who knows...

Ours are definitely considerably fatter than the originals. Lets hope they last.
