besides my rev-limiter issue today, i am pleased to say that the fine tears in the driver and rear left passenger seats have been set for replacement. the rear seat was replaced today, and the driver's seat leather (on back order), is to be replaced next wednsday. for anyone who does have this issue, i recommend getting it taken care of. i believe the entire rear seat was redone. the leather is nice and soft again, and that smell is as rich as it was when we 1st got the car! you gotta love that.
