    My m3 has a alacantara steering wheel and it gets beat up after awhile of use. I already got bmw to replace it once but they said i dont have a second chance. How do I clean it and protect it?

    So you have a material covering on your steering wheel? Doesn't sound like it would be very durable for a steering wheel. Maybe a steering wheel cover from Walmart.

    Alcantara sucks for durability. Be very careful with how you clean it. I would suggest just wiping it down with a damp microfiber towel and you're done. Unfortunately, Alcantara fades over time especially since it's on your steering wheel and your hands are always on it.
