Is anyone else experiencing the interior pieces of their 5 series peeling, I have been meaning to post this message earlier with some pics but got tied up. I notice the rubber piece by my window controls is starting to peel a little as well as some other areas.

Mines started peling some time ago. So I peeled ALL of it off the doors and center shift console. It looks good, though it doesn't have that same feel to it. But to the untrained eye, looks good as new. Alas, I can't wait to get into an F10 however. I've had this car for 4+ years and frankly, it's time for another.

The rubber was peeling off the steering wheel trim pieces. They replaced it as it was still under coverage.
