Question about Bosch WFR 145 Front Load Washer

Small crack in rubber seal

Hi, I have a bosch front loader that has developed a small crack in the rubber door seal. Is there some type of compound that will adhere to the plastic of the seal and fix the leak? Thanks Andy

Tire puncture repair kit and superglue has worked perfectly thanks.

The tyre puncture repair kit has worked as a stop gap but I can't see it lasting for long. Atleast it has proved that the rubber door seal was the cause of the problem. Bobg

The only way to fix it is to replace the bellows. tears are a common issue with front loading washers. Its not a hard job to replace but you may want to have it done for you because the wire and spring clamps can be hard to install.
