Steering wheel leather cut !
I just noticed today that the leather on the steering wheel is slightly cut.... not sure how it happened, but looks like it's cut by key or knife, etc...
what's the best way to repair this?
i've seen in infomercial where they had this leather(?) pad that seals leather cuts....

I would be shocked if the dealer warranted that.
I would be impressed as hell with the MB warranty because it looks like a tiny scratch most likely made by the user, not manufacture defect.

hmm....
i'll check out dealer first and see what they have to say...
maybe the leather on steering wheel is weak???
cuz i never had this problem with any other leather wrapped steering wheels... but i did notice mb's steering wheel's leather is softer than the others...

BMW M wheels are very soft
With tons of padding, can't say that I like them. Audi wheels are fantastic, too hard for some though.
THe scratch looks like your keys maybe accidentally hit it or something you probably didnt even notice it was so minor.
