Title: The Pirelli Seat issue - resolved
Post by: wigit on April 02, 2009, 05:17:02 pm
golf is was in the dealer today for the seat cover to be looked at, dealer was not pleased with the last result, dealer was not pleased with the cover and swapped the seat from their Pirelli they had in stock, a right result  :happy2:

so big shout out for Ridgeway Wantage, who whislt part of Ridgeway are a small dealership who are always spot on when it comes to customer service, and so it turns out mod friendly  :happy2:

It was very creased and the replacement 'effort' was worse!

Nice result mate, one less thing to worry about!  :happy2:

You have me worried now, what and where was the creasing. The seats in mine are fine. Is it the leather or the fabric.
Thanks

My question is, did they replace it with a pirelli or swap for a Michelin.  :chicken:  :smiley:

original saga posted here, issue was with the bolster not the Pirelli pattern which is absolutely brilliant and wearing well
