You can probably just steam and iron them out using the same method that some are probably trying on their wrinkly seats

I'm especially worried because the wrinkles have gotten worse over the years. I hope my G05 seats don't do the same.

The fact that BMW's new $100k darling SUV is being compared to a scrotum is pretty funny. Maybe they could charge extra for the seat wrinkles. "$500 - Scrotus effect seat finishers."

Maybe they go away if driven in a cold rain. Worked for George.

Just read an interview with the lead seat designer for the X5. His comment was "wrinkles? what wrinkles?". I can't link the text for some reason, just the photo.

I AM RELAXED!!

It's just plain stupid...
I can imagine others do not mind, but my brain doesn't function like that.
It would disturb me every time I would get in the car... that would make me very nervous.

And it's so stupid that the look of the rear seats is a no-go for the X5, because for the rest I think it's a fantastic car...

If it's a "no go" for you, why are you here? Don't mean to be a jerk, but I don't get the point of taking time to bitch about an issue that doesn't really affect you...I mean since it's a "no go". :
Hoping that it will improve of course!

I suggest you sell the x5 and buy a Chrysler 300 with whitewall tires. I think you will be much happier.

I can get rid of the wrinkles in your leather. Hold on let me go eat 12 street tacos with extra hot pico de gallo. I will tighten that leather up real quick. Bounce a quarter on it.

Has anyone actually tried the trick that was suggested about covering the seats with steaming hot towels to remove the wrinkles?
