Steering wheel veins

Hi everyone,

Does any of you have these veins on the steering wheel. It looks like either a heating elements or leather defect.

Hi ld757, I don't see that issue on my steering wheel but I don't have heating on the steering wheel if that makes a difference. I have a 2016 model G11 730d with about 30k miles on it now so should have shown if it was leather fatigue and something on everyone's wheel but maybe it is related to the heating?

I do see a very, very slight ribbing like you mention but lower down on the wheel and only if I really want to see it:

I have the same issue with my wheel. I showed the service manager and he gave the approval to replace it. Sweet!
