Carbon Bucket Seats Wrinkles

1frozenm4 · 01-04-2024, 10:45 AM

I’ve had my car for about a Week and bought it brand new and wanted to ask you guys is this normal? The bottom of my seat has a lot of wrinkles, more then I was expecting. Or is this normal?

I don’t think that is normal. I’d make the dealer address. Had a similar issue and they replaced the seat cover. In your case it may need additional padding as well.

My seats do not look like that.

how boney is your ass?

I really think it’s not the seat cover but a lack of foam under the seat. That should be an easy fix. If they have to replace the seat cover it could be a long wait.

2 years and 14k miles with my M5 CS and my seats never looked that bad.

That's not normal, take that in for warranty work.

chicagofan00 · 01-04-2024, 07:48 PM

Definitely not normal. Take it to the dealership and have them fix/swap out.

I have wrinkled on my seat as well - stupid. I keep reading about people steaming them out but haven't tried it yet.
