C43 Cranberry red leather discolouration





Is anyone else experiencing a black discolouration in the cranberry red leather seats both front and rear?

Damn hipsters with your raw denim jeans! Insist all passengers remove their pants before riding.
On a serious note, other will suggest some high end leather butter, but I have always been a fan of Murphy's oil soap on light colored interior. It's cheap and available everywhere.

It would be helpful to diagnose the issue if you added some screenshots. We can determine if it's as expected or if something is actually going on with the "discoloration"

Dealer will re-skin the seat within 10k miles and such an issue occurring. After that you'll need to push for it to be covered but can likely succeed.
