Purpose and function of the tailgate seal

The presented seal has been designed specifically for the rear body section of the Polo VI AW model, where it is responsible for a stable seal around the perimeter of the tailgate. A properly selected seal reduces the risk of moisture appearing in the trunk, helps protect upholstery and electrical components, and contributes to acoustic comfort inside the cabin.

As an element from the Door seals group, this tailgate rubber works with the adjacent body surfaces, compensating for minor deformations and body movements while driving. The proper rubber profile allows for even pressure on the tailgate, which promotes stable operation of the lock and hinges.

Construction and material properties

The seal is made of flexible rubber material, adapted to work in variable weather conditions. The material retains its elasticity at both low and high temperatures, which is important during frequent opening and closing of the tailgate.

Key functional features include:

• Flexible structure allowing for precise fitment to the edges of the tailgate and body.
• Properly selected rubber hardness, which ensures effective sealing without putting excessive load on the hinges.
• Resistance to typical operational factors, such as moisture, road dirt, or temperature changes.

Benefits of using an original Volkswagen seal

Using an original tailgate seal in the Polo VI AW translates into a number of practical operational benefits:

• Factory fit to the body – no modifications required, proper routing along the tailgate perimeter.
• Stable sealing of the luggage compartment, which helps reduce window fogging from the rear of the vehicle.
• Better protection against corrosion in the trunk sill area due to the reduction of water and dirt accumulation.
• Impact on acoustic comfort – reduction of noise ingress from the rear of the body.

The element from this group is particularly recommended in case of noticeable leaks, water appearing in the trunk, or problems with the tailgate closing properly.

Condition, installation, and service application

The offered seal is a used part, which makes it an attractive service solution for users looking for a compromise between cost and maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. Replacing the seal is a typical maintenance operation, performed in case of visible cracks, permanent deformations, or loss of elasticity of the existing element.

During installation, it is recommended to:

• thoroughly clean the contact surfaces on the tailgate and body,
• check the condition of the sheet metal edges and paint where the seal is seated,
• check for even tailgate pressure after installing the component.
