how is your interior holding up?
Notta scratch at 31,000km (inside or out...knocks on wood). The leather still looks like new but not as stiff. Not a wrinkle in it. I clean and treat it a few times a year.
I've had my 07 for 2yrs 8mos, 56k miles.
I currently have annoying interior rattles coming from front driver side door, rear drivers side window and front passenger side seatbelt.
Oh yeah, dash cluster started warping (replaced under warranty) and steering wheel trim scratched (replaced under warranty).

I had my dash cluster replaced at the 15k servicing and I am also experiencing the wrinkling in seats.
Question for everyone: Have people been taking care of their interior and if so what products have you been using?

Holy some of you guys have more miles on your 07-08s then i have on my 05. I only have 51k on it haha
Do they replace scratched interior pieces under warranty? A few things in ours is scratched.

These side bolsters do wrinkle pretty bad.
I have 12k on my 08 and I have added nothing to the car as far as problems in the 5k I have owned it. There was flaking of the seat paint/stain. They repainted that area. There is some very minor marks on the shifter. I had to get silicone put in the sun roof to stop the squeeking. I am having to get the radio replaced, but it is a long story on that one. There are just a few scuffs on the change holder on the driver's side door. I had brand new mats in the car when I bought it and have treated them super well and the driver's side still looks like crap. (stone? color) I think they are cheap mats. I am thinking of getting the rubber ones and do black.
Sounds like a lot, but really looks pretty flawless. It is just that I want it absolutely perfect. My only annoyance is a slight rattling sound somewhere on my door/dash on the driver's side and on the passenger's side. I plan on figuring that out and getting it fixed.

The plastic around the airbag area on my steering wheel has some of the paint scratched off, but was that way when I bought it back in April of this year. The drivers door panels have some scratching too due to soft materials. I just thought that the previous owner was some dragon lady with long nails, but it does scratch easily.
Oh, I've got an 07 with 27k on it.

mine is just about new after 26k+ miles. except for what was mentioned about the seat wrinkley which I hate! There's no way to take that up huh? I use cleaner and conditioner is there anything other than that ????
how does it peel?

how does it peel?
Just replaced the switch bezel (under warranty) on the drivers door because of peeling. This is a known issue because Infiniti changed over to a molded piece for the G37. They are also not interchageable between G35/G37.
The bezel around the steering wheel switches are also known to peel or scratch easily. Mine's not bad right now, but I can tell my steering wheel will need replacement before the warranty runs out.

maticulously maintained my car. im at 45k miles.
i have the thin smooth black material around the volume/change station/bluetooth buttons knicking. and the trim piece around the window switches is all chipped and knicked with discoloring.
i actually want to replace them with the graphite/black interior trim pieces.

Poll: bolster, inside door plastic, etc. replacement
I noticed that a few people have had similar problems with these two items (bolster on driver's side wrinkling quickly and the insdie door plastic (where the hole is) scratching easily). My question is this, how many people have tried to get the these (or similar leather or trim items) replaced under the warranty and been successful. Alternatively, how many people have tried and been denied?
Thanks!
Thanks!
My seat is slightly wrinkled, but not any more than I would expect for the miles I have.
My steering wheel, shift **** and arm rests are all completely flawless.
I'm pretty careful with my car though.

Inside the door plastic - no scratches whatsoever.
Shift **** - one scratch, don't care too much about it.
Left seat side is wrinkled, yes - but I doubt the dealer would consider replacing it (wear/tear) so I don't bother asking. I don't know whether it's poor quality leather or just poor seat design (leaning towards the latter - that side cushion could have been lower/more in line with the center of the seat).
