RDLUI 
2004 BMW X3 SUV 2.5i AWD 4dr SUV (2.5L 6cyl 6M)
Upholstery Seats
 Bought this vehicle for my wife when it first came out in 2004.  Drives well and is very responsive... just like most BMW's... Have had a good experience overall and not much to complain about.   However, the upholstery (not leather but vinyl fabric?) on the front driver's seat started cracking during the 3rd year of ownership and the fabric was replaced under warranty during the 4th and final year of warranty.  My complaint is that barely a year later, the same cracking is appearing on the same seat.  My wife weighs about 105 lbs and there's only 52,000kms (30,000 miles) on the car!
