Repairing / replacing RS4 bucket seat leather

Post by fairzy » Wed Sep 11, 2019 9:58 am

Is anyone able to find Audi part numbers?  I’m after a replacement leather / cover for my driver’s bucket seat.  Although it’s not in bad condition it is showing its age and after speaking with a local coach trimmer they said that they wouldn’t replace sections of the leather as it wouldn’t be possible to get a finish they’d be happy with.  Fair enough, but in my mind this leaves 2 options - replace only the foam, fix the stitching and then try and treat the leather or replace the whole leather (if it’s possible to source one!). Anyone have similar experiences or find a good solution?

Seat base cover still available from Audi but on back order went into dealer last week cost you about £550 not sure of backrest. I know a good trimmer but still trying to source some suitable leather for my bolster. There is another thread on here somewhere with all the info on. Good luck!

Thanks - had a look around but can't find part numbers. Don't suppose you have any? Repair of the leather would be around that figure so not too bad.

I think but you’ll need to check, that the following are what you’re after..

Backrest cover, valcona leather - 8E0881801AD

Seat cover, bottom in valcona leather - 8E0881401AK
