Is there a fix for the buble on the dash?

yes, there have been hundreds of posts on the X150 forum, and I successfully had my dash leather restretched and stapled down over four years ago and have not had any issues since. Check "dash shrinkage" on the X150 site and read through the posts. These dash bubbles were caused by Jaguar's mistaken belief that adhesive alone would hold the leather in place without stapling. But that was not true. But you don't need to purchase a $4000.00 dash either, however the dash will have to come out or the windshield removed for an upholsterer to have access to the front edge of the dash and clearance around the center speaker to get a stapler in.
