A horse hair brush for getting in the creases, if you use wipes or a cloth you'll put to much pressure on the surface and you may damage it, depending how aggressive the cleaner is. Take it back off with a mircofiber cloth or old towel.
I've used Gliptone with good results, but i do have blue leather so does hide the filth better.

Steam clean with a Microfibre towel to get the dirt off then use the standard seat cleaners.
After a good clean use leather cream to get the seat back to a nice condition. |

Some good videos on youtube too.
You can also get kits with new sealer/dye to cover cracks. |

The Woolies kits are good (if a little expensive) as they include cleaner, dye and a sealer. The dye is matched to your leather colour hence you need to inform them of the Audi colour code. The whole process is good on reducing both the extent and appearance of cracking as it appears to increase the "plumptiousness" of the leather and the dye gets into the remaining cracks making them less obvious. The sealer stops it rubbing off onto your clothes. "Cos your (car's) worth it!"

I've always used Glyptone leather cleaner and conditioner for my seats and it appears to work.
Removes the shine, brings the smell back and they seem softer after several applications. Got me thinking about the strip on the back, no idea what it is for. i've used a nail type brush for a deep clean.
