E85 sport seats - padding coming out

Post by RyanB88 » Thu Nov 16, 2017 9:13 pm

Hi

Where the right side bolster on the drivers seat meets the back rest on my e85 sport seats, i noticed just now that the padding is falling out and ending up on the floor in small tiny bits of foam

Has anyone else had this? At the moment the seat is still comfy and supportive from the bolster, but I don’t know how much more can fall out with it still providing support !

Any ideas appreciated

Never heard f this with E85 seats.

Sounds like they might have been wet at some stage, and the foam is rotting?

You can put your hand round the back and into where it’s coming out (the side bolster) so somehow a gap has appeared there :/
