Is this normal, or should I ask for a replacement under warranty? I used to clean it whith Lexol pH (seats too).

that is just poor quality. I have had cars with 200K miles and the steering wheels never looked like that. Speak with the SM and ask him to help. If he says no, ask to speak with the regional parts and service manager then go to Acura. A steering wheel should never look like that.

have your tried cleaning it at all? One guy who's car I detailed looked exactly like yours, a little bit of woolite and water solution (6 parts water to 1 part woolite) cleaned it up.

Really man, woolite and water? Damn, should I try before getting the car to service? Imagine that: "Hey man, learn how to clean up your car!" Let me try a portion of the SW now, it's 9:12pm!!

It was all dirt cover with Lexol! OK, learn from the best. Thanks guys, thanks csmeance. Case closed, right?
PS Honestly, I was already thinking about the 2005-2006 SW, or even a TL-S!!

Maybe water + Woolite will take care of your sister's Accord wheel problem.

FWIW, I avoid using leather conditioner on steering wheel covers just because they feel slippery shortly after conditioner application.
