old thread but for anyone w issues w the wheel , mine looked as if there was a razor blade taken to it at the 10 o clock position on 1 stitch , then with the use over the next day it just started unstitching

provided your within the 4/50 they will replace any old looking, worn out, crappy, or even new wheel w a new one !

happened on my x5m aswell as my m5 in fact they even replaced my driver seat for the same issue , cust states stich's are coming loose
