Cloth seats? If so check to see if they are "alcantra" material. This is like a soft suede material but if not cleaned properly they may develop rings or what appears to be stains.

Doh!!!! What a muppet!!!!!!! Very Embarrased

Guess it would help a bit if I said they are cloth seats. With Sports seats.. pull out extenders for leg support, electric lumbar support and bucket shape. From what you have said I think its more a case of "So the dirt seeps into the seat foam and then "wicks" back up as it dries. " rather than a spill. I will try and get a photo later today.

thanks
