My first real problem

I was putting golf clubs in the coupe this weekend and folded down the rear seats. On the "60" side, I noticed that the cloth upholstery had pulled away from the backing (the hard backside of the seat where it's tucked in at the top). The area that had come loose is about 10 inches long, and getting bigger I think. I don't see how it's tucked in there so I couldn't even make a temporary fix. It's not critical but it's bugging the hell out of me. I guess I need to schedule my first visit to the dealer.

Amazed to find out that standard golf clubs are about 3 inches too long to fit in the trunk without folding the seat down. I thought that would be a pre-requisite for all MB vehicles!

Yeah, and on top of that, it's hard to get 'em in & out even with the seats down because of the package shelf. Oh well, life's little struggles....
