Genuine Aston Martin Engine Sealing Grommet 1X43-17673-AA

Product Overview

The Genuine Aston Martin part 1X43-17673-AA is the original windscreen washer pump seal for the Aston Martin DB9 and DBS. Listed in the factory catalogue as Seal, Windscreen Washer Pump, it sits between the washer pump and the washer bottle in the washer bottle assembly, diagram 01-1604-10, where it seals the pump outlet into the reservoir. When this small seal hardens or splits, washer fluid leaks from the bottle and the windscreen washers lose pressure, so renewing the genuine seal restores a leak-free washer system.

Part Numbers & Reference Codes

OE part number: 1X43-17673-AA. In the Aston Martin washer bottle diagram 01-1604-10 it is item 6, described as Seal, Windscreen Washer Pump. It is a different part from item 5 in the same diagram, the headlamp washer pump seal 1X43-13K188-AA, so check which pump is leaking before ordering. Always order and verify by the full 1X43-17673-AA number to receive the correct seal for the windscreen washer pump.

Vehicle Compatibility & Fitment

Factory diagrams show this seal in the washer bottle assembly of the Aston Martin DB9, including the 2013 and 2014 diagram years, and the Aston Martin DBS, including the 2012 diagram year, both with the 6.0 litre V12. The washer bottle and pumps are shared across related VH platform cars and model years, but seal fitment must be confirmed for each car. Share your VIN with our parts team before ordering and we will verify 1X43-17673-AA against the factory catalogue for your exact vehicle.

The washer bottle on these cars feeds two pumps, one for the windscreen and one for the headlamps, and each pump seals into the bottle with its own seal. Owners often find the bottle leaking only when the car is parked after a fill, because fluid seeps past the hardened seal under gravity. Replacing the seal is the correct first repair before condemning the pump itself, since a pump that runs but leaks at its base usually needs this seal, not a new motor.

Key Features & Benefits

• Exact OE seal: moulded to the factory profile for the windscreen washer pump and bottle neck.
• Stops washer fluid leaks: restores the seal between pump and reservoir, ending drips and fluid loss.
• Restores washer pressure: a sealed pump inlet helps the pump deliver full pressure to the windscreen jets.
• Correct pump seating: the genuine seal holds the pump at the designed position in the bottle.
• Small part, common fault: perished pump seals are a frequent cause of washer bottle leaks on these cars.

Installation Position & Fitment Notes

The seal fits at the base of the windscreen washer pump, where the pump pushes into the washer bottle. Access is normally through the wheel arch liner on the bottle side. The pump pulls out of the bottle with the seal, the bottle neck and pump spigot must be cleaned before fitting, and the new seal must sit fully in its groove so the pump pushes home evenly. Do not use sealant unless the Aston Martin procedure specifies it, and check for leaks with the bottle refilled before refitting the liner.

While the pump is out, flush any sediment from the bottom of the bottle and check the pump filter gauze if fitted, because debris in the bottle accelerates seal and pump wear. Also operate the washers before refitting the liner so the second pump and its seal can be checked for weeping at the same time.

What’s Included in the Box

This listing includes one (1) Genuine Aston Martin Windscreen Washer Pump Seal, OE part number 1X43-17673-AA. The washer pump, washer bottle, and the separate headlamp washer pump seal 1X43-13K188-AA are different part numbers and are not included. If your pump motor has also failed, our team can quote the pump for your car at the same time. Keep the new seal clean and dry before fitting, and handle it by its edges so the sealing faces stay undamaged.

Installation Requirements

Fitting is straightforward for a qualified technician: drain or catch the washer fluid, remove the arch liner fixings for access, withdraw the pump, renew the seal, and refit. Take care with the pump electrical connector and the hose union, which become brittle with age. After fitting, refill the bottle, run the washers front and rear where fitted, and confirm there are no leaks and the jets spray at full pressure.
