Wanted to ask the Type R people.... I have a 2000 R... seems the suede on the seats in starting to wear... passanger side is not to bad, however, driver side is starting to look bad... will Acura do anything about this under warranty????

When purchasing the car, I knew it would be a problem@!

 

I seriously doubt it. The warranty doesn't cover normal wear...

 

Has anyone else eperienced the same problem?????

 

On a 2000, I would not consider thsi normal wear. I have not seen any 1998s with worn seats yet.
Go to the dealer, they may suprise you...

You're wearing the suede out so fast because I see you timing yourself around the neighbourhood with your G-Tech pro. You will not hit the elusive 1.0G with your lowdowns. Haha.. JK

have you tried cleaning the seats?

little pieces of dust and sand act like sandpaper and wear them down. Use a toothbrush and scrub thoroughly.

 

I have to agree with Edwin on this one. Lowdowns will never hit 1.0G. Try giving the G-Tech a good flick while in the corner and that might help you along.

Then give your seats a break!

 

I have a '98 and the seats are showroom. I don't think on a car that new you should have wear like that. I'd suggest taking it to the dealer, but like the other members said... you will have tough luck getting anything done about it.

 

ditto...mine are perfect

 

try cleaning them first, you might get some good results Unless your a fat bastard like me

 

how do you guys clean your seats?

just soap and water???

how do you dry it??

 

ur probs draggin ur *** everytime u get out and in ? i guess you have lift yourself off the seat?

 

Listen **** wipes.... I am not dragging my buttock in and out of the seats.... the fact is, suede is not a very durable material... the suede seems to be worn, not the fabric portion of the seats..

I guess I will try a steam clean at the local car detailer... if that doesn’t work... time to steal Edwin's seats.

 

Stop Farting.

 

huh..huh.....you said **** wipes

 

Whoa chillz dawg!!
