Just been inspecting the car in readiness for our holiday in a couple of weeks and noticed that the rubbers that go inside the wheel arches (metal part) have swollen and distorted, actually starting to fall off in places. There are 4 pieces approx 500mm long and 2 pieces approx 750mm long - can anyone tell me if they are LR part numbers or just a bulk product purchased on a roll? Cheers,

According to someones post back in 2011

Quote:

The Part numbers are;
LLR026342 £5.64 (Front nearside with seal portion)
LLR001623 £3.83 (Front offside) aparently can be used on either O/S or N/S but has no extra seal.
LLR001624 £3.83 (Rear)
LLR005165 £10.41 (Rear)

The four seals fitted to the higher side of the wheel arch are edge protectors part number LR001624 and the other two are finnishers part number LR005165 but double check when ordering for your car

someone said the long ones are cheaper so just buy all the long ones and cut down if needed At work

Problem is the same will happen again unfortunately  Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.

Mine need replacing aswell  59 TD4e XS in galway green

I suggested getting the longer ones and cutting to length.

I also used some black sealant on the ends (someone elses suggestion ) to help stop degradation.

The long ones are LR001623

I bought a set of 6 and was amazed to find they were all EXACTLY the same profile/design - just different lengths  2002 Honda VFR800

I've had problems with these too, and my F2(MY11) is only 18 months old.

Curious though why the NSF has a 'seal ' attached - I wondered if somebody had in fact fitted a piece of door surround to mine at the factory rather than the proper part! Anyway I've replaced the the dodgy NSF trim with the 'non - seal' version.

PS My wife has an F2 (60 plate but MY10) and this has had the non seal version fitted from new. So a total conundrum!

Update:

A big thanks to Dan @ Duckworths - stunning service as always.
Ordered the new rubbers on Wednesday and they arrive Saturday morning - now fitted

IanH - the 'doorseal' as you said is the N/S front rubber and the extra 'tube' section seals the gap and prevents water from travelling up into the engine bay and air filter. I've got the same on the O/S too, although the old ones were the non-seal type - maybe LR have changed their minds at some stage about fitting them? Cheers,

Because Razman's car is a 2007 TD4 so out of warranty.

I noticed that mine also has the seal version of the nsf wheel arch protector, not sure why it is there but must be for a reason as the older versions of the FR2 does not have this seal.

Anyway for your information the part number is LR031593, I bought a spare and cost me £7.67 including vat, kinda expensive for what it is
