Hi can someone help me with sourcing a new seal for at the top of my S211's tailgate. It has fallen down and is very cracked and perished. I spoke to my local Mercedes dealer and they couldn't get one. I don't know the part number either. Thanks in advance. William IMG_7588.jpeg

There's no real seal. It seemed to me that Mercedes never supplied a replacement.
 
There is a part, piece that fits there. Bought one a few years ago for my S211 but no longer have the car or the part number. I bought it from the MB parts counter, it needed to be ordered, about £20 iirc..

I couldn't find it. Mercedes couldn't find it...

Unless it comes as part of the upper water guide part 540 on the following link (I don't think so)

 
I think it was that part 540.. it tucks in behind the two end, corner pieces..
Unfortunately all the paperwork went with the car when I recently sold it.

It is a solid plastic strip with a rubber seal along the top.. two bits stuck together making one part.

Alright, I'll order one from Mercedes to find out
 
Will be here next week. £30 from local MB dealer. Hope it will be the full part
 
And SOL. Went to pick it up today and was told actually NLA and the system had not refreshed from last order yet, so due a refund 😞
 
Yes, very annoying same issue I had. Was told no longer available. I’m going to have to bond mine back in place even though it’s cracked and perished.

I think this might do
