Kartal Auto, is proud to have completed a meticulous seat repair and restoration job on the stunning Aston Martin Vanquish. This high-performance luxury vehicle deserves the utmost attention to detail, especially when it comes to its interior. During the seat restoration process, we identified several issues that were affecting the comfort and aesthetic appeal of the seats. Here’s a breakdown of the issues we found and the precise solutions we implemented to restore these seats to their original, luxurious state.
Issue found
1. Worn and Cracked Leather Upholstery
Issue:
The leather upholstery on the Vanquish seats had begun to show significant signs of wear and cracking, especially on the bolsters where friction from getting in and out of the vehicle had taken its toll.
Solution:
Our expert upholstery team carefully examined the leather and applied a deep cleaning and conditioning treatment to restore the material’s softness. We replaced any severely damaged sections with high-quality, OEM-grade leather that matched the car’s original finish. After reupholstering the affected areas, we applied a protective coating to keep the leather looking pristine and to prevent future damage.
2. Sagging and Misaligned Seat Cushions
Issue:
The seat cushions had lost their firmness and proper alignment, resulting in sagging and decreased comfort for the driver and passengers. This caused a compromised seating position, which could lead to discomfort during longer drives.
Solution:
Our team disassembled the seats and replaced the worn-out foam padding with high-density, high-quality foam that restored the original shape and support of the cushions. We also ensured that the foam was ergonomically designed for maximum comfort. Once the cushions were aligned correctly, we reupholstered them to provide a seamless, comfortable seating experience.
3. Malfunctioning Seat Adjustment Mechanism
Issue:
The electric seat adjustment mechanism was malfunctioning, preventing the driver and passenger from making smooth, precise adjustments for optimal comfort. This included issues with the backrest angle, seat height, and lumbar support.
Solution:
We fully inspected the seat adjustment mechanism and identified faulty motors and wiring. After replacing the defective components with high-quality OEM parts, we recalibrated the system to restore full functionality. The seat adjustments now work seamlessly, allowing the driver and passengers to find their ideal position with ease.
4. Broken Lumbar Support
Issue:
The lumbar support system, an essential feature for long-distance driving comfort, had stopped functioning, leaving the seats less supportive for the lower back area.
Solution:
We carefully disassembled the seat to access the lumbar support system and found that the internal mechanism was damaged. We replaced the broken components and reinstalled the system to ensure proper functionality. The lumbar support is now fully operational, providing adjustable pressure and support for the lower back.
5. Stains and Dirt on Alcantara Seat Inserts
Issue:
The Alcantara seat inserts, known for their luxurious feel and texture, had become stained and dirty, detracting from the overall interior appeal of the Vanquish.
Solution:
We utilized a specialized cleaning process designed for Alcantara fabric to lift the stains without damaging the material. After cleaning, we applied a fabric protector to prevent future stains and preserve the Alcantara’s soft, suede-like texture. The seat inserts now look fresh and pristine, enhancing the interior’s luxurious feel.
