Mercedes Door Seal - Genuine Mercedes 1717200454

Product Information

Door seals are essential components that prevent water, air, and debris from entering the vehicle's cabin. They also help to reduce road noise and maintain the interior climate.

• Cracking or tearing: Over time, exposure to the elements and frequent use can cause the rubber material to degrade, leading to cracks or tears.
• Shrinkage or compression: Temperature fluctuations can cause seals to shrink or compress, creating gaps that compromise their effectiveness.
• Water leaks or wind noise: Damaged or worn-out seals can result in noticeable water leaks during rain or increased wind noise at higher speeds.

About Genuine Mercedes

The original parts used by Mercedes Benz to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Mercedes Benz” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Mercedes Benz, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Mercedes Benz Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Mercedes-Benz are not necessarily manufactured by Mercedes-Benz. No cause for concern, as Mercedes-Benz designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Mercedes-Benz for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Mercedes-Benz logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
