M steering wheel damage
Hi everyone. A friend if mine drove my X1 and somehow damaged the steering wheel. I think with his ring. But i have tried it myself on al loaner with m wheel, but no damage.
Anyhow, is there a way to make it look better? |

There are leather repair kits but myself I would try the wax shoe polish and buffing with a soft cloth.
Found this if it helps https://www.furnitureclinic.co.uk/Ho...hes_On_Leather

And next time your 'Friend' is to drive behind the wheel, have him remove that cheese crater of a ring.

Got my steering wheel replaced under warranty thank god. The new one looks thicker (probably just in my head) and has the rough feel again.
But it is strange that after 2 years and 35000km on it, the wheel is all shiny and not matte anymore. Lets see how long it takes with the new one |
