yes, i can see it pops out a bit but just not sure where is it exactly. is it your left tail light? the light from your pic looks more vertical than horizontal and it looks more like the tail light from a cadillac srx suv. that's why i'm kind of confused.

Yosheego, your wood console looks good to me. In fact, all the cars I saw at the dealer lot last had the same color and the sides were a little lighter on all the E sedans I saw; My dealer told me the expansion was normal too!

09/10 build as MY2011. The fading for me seems to be limited to the trim piece above the glove box, and not even across as it is more faded towards the AC vent on the right than on the left.
My car is garaged at home, but is parked outside in my spot at work, with a mixture of sun and shade. Of course, when I golf, it is outside in the sun for 5 hours or so at a time, as is the case when normally out and about.

I recently purchased a 2010 and noticed the issue with the reverse camera. Having all of this information is extremely valuable before heading to the dealer for service.

Yes, not certain why they issued another bulletin rather than revision but looks like they added designo trim and clean point 8/11 validation (claim vehicles produced 8/11 > are equipped with modified trim).
This bulletin applies to your vehicle – within VIN range & datacard includes 873 (seat heater for left/ right front seats) have dealer check it.
