rotting antenna gasket

doctorzaius · May 30, 2013

On my 2008, the gasket at the antenna base is basically disintegrating. Is that common? Anyone know if the MB sells the gasket alone? I've looked online, but haven't found a part number or source. Thanks.

I took my antenna off to install a gps antenna and used window dope to reseal.

I had the same problem with my 2008 and it was replaced under warranty. The dealer had to replace the entire antenna.
