Leather Seat Mark
I plan to mention this to the dealers on my next visit, but I wondered whether anyone here has seen something similar.
On the passenger seat a faint line has appeared (I don't recall seeing it before) and I wonder whether it's come from the heating element when the heated seats are on. I plan to switch the heated seat on and leave it for a bit to see whether it gets any worse, but I was interested to know whether anyone else has had this? In the photo you can just about make out the vertical line (difficult to pic up in the photo). |

It looks like a natural scare from the leather there's marks on the under side of most leathers sometimes one of them shows thru ,if it wasn't scratched by someone that's what you most likely have it wouldn't be your heating element they are a smooth pad with element in it. That shouldn't cause the leather to not hold up under normal wear.
