wise words that I should have listened to

I guess I didn't state this is my wife's car (that I made her buy), but I drive it once in a while and cringe every time, my car is spotless and hers is just a pit. We both work and have little time to do things like eat at home, so kids are always eating in her car and there is always a coffee by her side. After 2 years my 335 is still brand new looking inside, her 3 year old X3 looks like its 5-6 years old.

She ended up buying that electronics cleaner spray and spraying the buttons with it. She said they all worked fine now, of course that wasn't the case as a few days later the radio buttons are stuck again, however the traction control button is working properly which is awesome. I will probably take a toothbrush this weekend and try to scrub the radio buttons with rubbing alcohol or that same electronics spray.
