Gave the car a wash on sunday but notice i have some really dodgy looking stains on the seats!!! anyone know how to get them out? i have some auoglym interior shampoo was just gonna sponge this in all over the seats then get a heater in there to dry it up? Any other suggestions?
Hoover all the crap off them, then use a soft brush with the Autoglym Interior shampoo. And leave the windows/doors open if possible to let it dry naturally.

What he says... don't use the car if it rains, the rain will bring the stains back / banish all liquid items from entering the car....
On a serious note, use the AutoGlym Interior Shampoo and when the seats are dry spary some generic fabric snoe protector on them and this should give you some time before the stains return.
My Mum has an Audi A3 and it suffers from the same problem in the "wet" and thats on a 16k car, must just be the fabrics that the VAG group use that leaves them open to staining so easily... Although i'm sure you'll find some people on here that this doesn't happen to as it does seem to be one of those quirky "VAG" things... for instance my Dad had has an 04 plate Cordoba and he doesn't have this issue and his seat fabric is the same pattern as mine....
+1 for autoglym, I won`t use anything else on my seats! A couple of applications with an apholstery sponge should be enough, then when it has dried out cover them with some scotch gard to protect them from further staining: clicky Also good stuff
One can should be enough to do both front seats easy.
+2 for AG Interior Shampoo spray. The white/black seats of my Furby vRS are a nightmare to keep clean. I have the high foam stuff as well but that doesn't seam to as well as the shampoo.
Try to do it on a sunny day so it dries quiker and leave either doors or windows open. I take my rear seats out to clean mine, then pt them into the boiler room to dry.
Seat covers are the way to go. I've got some cheap ones from Aldi and Lidl, but you can buy custom made ones from Town and Country or Climate covers.
