Leather defect
I had booked our 6 month old MY12 D4 XS into the dealer today to get them to check a "suspension fault" warning that appeared at the weekend (although didn't re-appear on start up so hopefully no big deal).
I noticed when clearing out the car last night that the stitching of the leather on the outer seat in the middle row (just where it meets the middle seat) was undone (almost as if it had never been stitched through in the first place). It's definitely not wear and tear because it's on a surface that's not in contact with passengers. The leather is standard rather than premium and is almond colour.
I'll be interested to hear the response from the dealer later today. Anybody else had any similar issues ?

Nope - back to Taggarts where we bought it.
Just heading there to pick up courtesy HSE as there appears to be a fault with the suspension compressor wiring.
No comment on the leather so far but I'll ask when I get there.
Cheers

Turns out they couldn't find the split in the leather so I've pointed it out to them - it's not big but it's one of those splits along a seam that will only get worse with age.
