Interior Leather Specifically the Doors
On my M5, the leather looks like it is pulling away from the doors and the actual arm rests. What can I do?...The dealer says he has no idea what to do, I figured someone here has had the same problem. Is there a way to email BMW of North America to ask about this?.....Overall, the car is just great and I would love to keep the interior pristine....Thanks

Back in those early 90's BMW used an environmentally 'safe' glue, which you've noticed - doesn't last forever.....
I don't know how you'd access the door handles, but I've been happy using 'Gorilla Glue' to re-fasten the edges of my VINYL door panels.

If there is substantial delamination, an option may be to replace the entire inner trim. I was told by an upholsterer that the cost was about Australian$200 however this was for a vinyl trim and I didn't ask whether this was a new or used part.
