Removing the seat cover
Hello all
I have an air leak inside the seat in the area where the lower-back air-pillow is located in the drivers seat (the part going up behind your back). Is there any good/easy method of removing the skin 20-30 cm up from the bottom without damaging it ?

Try approaching the problem from the back of the seat. The plastic back panel is attached by two torx screws at the bottom edge of the panel (pointing upwards). Once these screws are removed, the panel slides downward and off revealing the seats support springs and the air bladder which is used for the lumbar support. This should give you ready access without having to remove the leather seating surface.
