Default

Try a good leather conditioner on the area on a regular basis ... it helps.

Default Will be a topic of discussion at my next service visit . . .

My '05, with 10,000 miles on it, is already showing signs of cracking on the left bolster of the bottom cushion. This, in spite of the fact that I condition the leather regularly and try to be careful entering/exiting the car. I think it's an inherent problem with the design of the seat and the grade of leather. And I suspect the only solution is ultimately to recover the seat. Will be interesting to see if AoA stands (or sits?) behind this.

Default mine looks awful. It's the buttons on my back pockets.

I try to make sure they're unbuttoned when I get in the car, but every now and then, I forget. Damn cleaners doing their job and buttoning them, is ruining my seat!
