Has anyone had a problem with there seats? I have a line and discolouration . before you say we must have spilt something, we haven't.
it also feels a different texture.
porsche have even tried to clean it and have agreed its a different texture and very strange
I also have a perfect circle (about the size of a 2p) on one rear seat and a half moon on the other, and nobody has sat in the back!
I only ask as porsche are saying its not a warranty issue, which is unbelievable, so I am fighting hard with them but would be handy if anyone else has the same issue? thank you

I was active on the BMW X5 forum when I had the 45e before the Taycan. I didn’t have it but lots of owners did and it looks similar to yours.

was it there on delivery?

I think with BMW there was an issue with the product they used.

I would have to look back myself but maybe you can google BMW G05 seat discoloration.

Looks like an irregularity in the hide. Press for replacement of the seat bottom cover if it bothers you. No amount of cleaning will fix that.

Could be the leather is delaminating from the backing. Just a guess as I have never seen the inside of the leather covers.

Sorry to see this in your Taycan. Hope it is resolved smoothly soon.

As I previously posted, the leather (standard) used in the Taycan is a much inferior quality than usual Porsche leather. It can also depend on recyclable materials usage or other, but there's nothing nice about it. Weak and cheap material. I am thinking about having it redone. I bought off the lot so I didn't have a choice....

I have the exact same circle showing up on my front passenger seat - Contacted dealership and was told it maybe caused by putting a drink on the seat which can't be true because I would never.

Keep on making noise. Mine kept on giving me suggestions for just about every problem, it could have been anything but manufacturer defect.
