Jaguar Xke Door Pillar Post Seals

Jaguar Xke Door pillar post seals

Door pillar post seals for the Jaguar Xke start at $23.95, with 2 options in stock from URO. These rubber or foam-backed strips press against the door frame to block wind, water, road noise, and dust from entering the cabin. When they crack, compress, or pull away, you get leaks, drafts, and interior damage that worsen quickly.

Signs your Jaguar Xke needs new door pillar post seals

  • Wind noise or a distinct whistling sound at highway speed, localized to the door or window edge
  • Water dripping onto the door sill, floor mat, or seat after rain or a car wash
  • Visible gaps, cracks, or sections of seal that have pulled away from the pillar
  • Hardened, shrunken, or brittle rubber that no longer springs back when pressed
  • Increased road and tire noise inside the cabin that wasn't present before
  • Musty or moldy odor in the interior from moisture collecting behind a failed seal

Which door pillar post seal should you buy for your Jaguar Xke?

The most important decisions are position (A-pillar, B-pillar, or C-pillar), whether you need the inner or outer seal, and material quality. OEM-equivalent EPDM rubber holds up better to UV and temperature swings than low-grade foam replacements. Confirm the pillar location and left/right side before ordering, as these seals are not interchangeable.

Replacing door pillar post seals on a Jaguar Xke

Easy⏱ 30–90 minutes per sealPlastic trim removal tool or flat pry toolWeatherstrip adhesive (if seal is glued rather than channeled)Clean rags and isopropyl alcohol for surface prepUtility knife or scissors for trimming seal lengthRubber mallet or roller for pressing the new seal into the channel

Start by carefully peeling or prying out the old seal, then clean the mounting channel or bonding surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and allow it to dry completely. Press the new seal firmly into the channel along its full length, or apply weatherstrip adhesive evenly before setting the seal and holding it in place until cured. Close the door slowly to confirm the seal compresses evenly before driving.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to replace door pillar post seals on a Jaguar Xke?
Parts start at $23.95 for a single seal on the Jaguar Xke. DIY installation adds no labor cost, while a body shop or dealer typically charges one to two hours of labor on top of the part price. Replacing multiple seals at once saves labor time and helps keep the cabin consistently weatherproofed.
Can a failed door pillar post seal cause water damage inside my Jaguar Xke?
Yes. A cracked or detached seal on the Jaguar Xke allows rainwater to track along the pillar and drip onto the sill, floor, or lower door trim. Repeated moisture intrusion can soak carpet padding, promote mold growth, and accelerate corrosion on the floor pan if left unaddressed for multiple seasons.
How long do door pillar post seals last on a Jaguar Xke?
On the Jaguar Xke, door pillar post seals typically last anywhere from several years to well over a decade depending on climate, UV exposure, and how often the doors are opened. Hot, sunny regions accelerate rubber hardening and cracking. Inspecting seals during routine maintenance helps catch failure before water damage occurs.
Can I replace door pillar post seals myself on a Jaguar Xke?
Yes, most door pillar post seal replacements on the Jaguar Xke are a straightforward DIY job. The old seal is usually pulled free by hand or with a trim tool, and the new one presses into the existing channel or is adhered with weatherstrip adhesive. No special mechanical experience is required in most cases.
Do I need to replace all pillar seals at once on a Jaguar Xke?
Not strictly required, but it is practical. If one seal on the Jaguar Xke has hardened or cracked from age and UV exposure, the remaining seals are likely near the same condition. Replacing all affected pillar seals in a single session prevents repeat leaks and saves the time and cost of a second repair shortly after.
How do I know which pillar seal fits my Jaguar Xke?
Confirm the pillar position — A, B, or C — and the driver or passenger side. Many Jaguar Xke seals are also side-specific. Using your vehicle's year and trim when searching on AutoBuffy filters results to seals with a confirmed fitment for your exact application, reducing the chance of ordering the wrong profile or channel width.
