Idrive Controller - Warranty Query?

Hi all,

I'll attach a picture of my idrive controll in a MY10 135i which is still under warranty. The decal on the controller is flaking off, very easily I want your opinions on whether i should be pushing for this to be a warranty job?

The car has less than 15k miles.

Thanks

If they replace the steering wheel cover, they should replace that. The potential problem is that there are a lot less I-drive knobs out there, hence probably not a common problem.
