Purpose and function in the vehicle

The rear wiper arm seal is mounted in the rear window area, where the arm passes through the tailgate panel. Its task is to:

• limit the ingress of water and dirt into the interior of the tailgate,
• stabilize the wiper arm in its socket,
• dampen minor vibrations during wiper operation,
• protect metal components against accelerated corrosion.

A properly selected seal helps maintain the efficiency of the rear wiping system, which translates into better visibility and safer maneuvering, especially when reversing in rain or snow.

Compatibility with BMW X3 F25 and X5 E70

The presented seal has been designed for BMW X3 F25 and BMW X5 E70 models, which means it maintains the correct profile and fit for the factory mounting. Thanks to this:

• it does not require modifications or forced fitting,
• it maintains the correct position of the wiper arm relative to the glass,
• it allows for consistency with the original body structure.

Such a fit is particularly important in premium class vehicles, where both durability and maintaining factory assembly standards are essential.

Component characteristics and advantages of use

The rear wiper arm seal belongs to the group of wear parts that can harden, crack, or lose elasticity over time. Replacing it with a functional component allows you to:

• reduce the risk of leaks around the wiper mounting,
• limit internal window fogging in the tailgate area,
• protect the electrical harness and drive mechanism from moisture,
• maintain the aesthetic appearance of the rear bodywork.

The product comes from a BMW vehicle, which promotes maintaining the factory manufacturing standard and compatibility with the original wiper arm and tailgate.

Component condition and assembly aspects

The seal is offered as a used part, which in practice means a favorable compromise between cost and functionality. Before installation, a standard visual inspection and cleaning of the tailgate socket and contact surface are recommended to ensure proper sealing.

The replacement process itself is usually straightforward and can be performed during rear wiper service or during work on the tailgate. A properly installed seal supports stable rear wiper operation and reduces the need for subsequent service interventions.
