Just a quickie. Anyone noticed their heating element showing through the leather? Never seen before on any on her car?? Thoughts?

New seat please Audi.

Jess that's a bit heavy, the seats come in parts, the leather cover being a part, so i'd imagine they'll take the bolster apart, fix the exposure of the element and then put the original cover back on.

Defo weird one though, I actually quite like it!!, sort of retro.

Up date! Audi came back saying they have seen it once b4 and it was dirt. I was 100% sure this was not the case as I regularly clean the seats at least once a week. The light leather is very susceptible to dye transfer. I invested in a very expensive leather cleaner today and low and behold the markings have gone.

Had mine treated in gtechniq l1 when the outside was being done. Transfer from jeans just wipes off very easily.
