My 2018 A238 E400 has front seat leather wear or leather color wear. The Beige leather on the seat edge is turning yellowish as the dye or leather surface wears from cleaning and getting in and out of the car. I noticed some whiteness coming off the area as I was using Mequiars Leather Cleaner so I stopped immediately and continued on with the their Leather Conditioner. I'm wondering if the seat bottom can be re-dyed. It's like a $600 part to replace. Is anybody else seeing this on their vehicle?
I know your post is pretty old and I hope you found a solution but in case it's still an issue, I just bought some Leather Dye from a company called Paint Bull: https://store.paintbull.com/product/...to-beige-4-oz/ The color on your computer screen will look a little dark but it was an exact match right out of the bottle for Macchiato Beige 5110 on my 2018 E400 Coupe. I had the same issue you did. I cleaned the seat bolster with a water based cleaner, Lexol, let it dry, and then I put on 5 or 6 very light coats of the stuff with a folded up paper towel and dried with a hair dryer set on cool between coats. It really looks like new. I'll see if it holds up. If you do the perforated part of the seat I would go extremely lightly with the product so it doesn't try to fill the holes. There are quite a few youtube videos on using leather dye on car seats. I liked this one:
which shows the process of rejuvenating a seat that has lost it's color in wear areas. They don't use fillers or heavy handed cleaning or sanding so the process seemed reasonable to attempt.
