Help! Soaked X5

[buschy]

if you have heated seats, DONT turn them on. probably not a good idea to use the power funtions on the seats either, untill its totaly dry.
I freed some heated seats in my toyota like this.

don't turn on the heat, the last thing you want to happen is for the soak stains and water to wrinkle and wear the upholstery during evaporation

Having done this in boats a bit, run first heat then AC repeatedly (or what you might try is one on one side and one on the other though not sure if it will really work well that way).

The air circulation will also help.

Though as suggested I would vacuum all possible out first.

Some mercs of the recent past use to have a fault whereby all the windows would drop when the car is parked. Make sure its not the same case

You can also just take it to a detailer. Since they shampoo carpets they have good water extraction tools.
