Good question, but how does one find the true number. Bet Audi would know of all those reported. That said, Agee about sticking with nougat brown.

Let us know how it fits and if there's any wrinkling, creases or loose fitment issues especially right where your bottom sits (make sure the leather is flush/tight against the foam cushion in that area).

They ordered a new seat cover for me. I looked at how the seat is effected when I got in and out of the seat. It appears the blemish came from exiting when the bolster is compressed and an outward crease is formed right where the blemish is.

hi. I would also like an update. I'm not seeing fading but rather the leather seems too soft and the edges around the perforations are peeling away. Gasp!

I wonder if color transfer will be an issue on my grey interior I ended up going with. The color is very similar to the color I have in my Passat which has had no issues other than showing some dirt in the suede material but I know they have completely different leathers in them so it could still be a possibility.
