RE: have you had issues with your cluster?
Well I just called up those guys and they told me that now they support fixing your center display...which I remmeber they did not before. I might end up going with them, my display is beyond terrible...
My issues? Well my fuel gauge has gone berserk a few times. Drove 100+ miles and it was still reading full once...another time its readings were off by almost a half tank yet eventually rectified themselves.
My tach started moving really choppy once. Like it'd hesitate every few hundred RPM going up and down. Pulled my cluster out opened it up moved the actuator around broke one of the clips it attaches to superglued that back together put it back in and it's been fine (I think) since. It's not 100% smooth I don't think...like if I do a pull then let the revs drop in neutral it's a little choppy. It's not that bad.
Just recently one of the backlight LED's started to barely work. The light right on 3k on the tach now flickers like a dead neon sign...only 90% of the time it's off. Haven't had the inspiration to bother to fix this one yet, been busy hating my car cuz more shat on it just broke...i.e. glovebox.

Date reset to 1998 and clock malfunctioned, too but cluster changed under warranty on my 2000 NM TT. New cluster: Clock again malfunctioned and date again reset to 1998 and I am continuing to live in the past at ?:00 o'clock!

That happens when you battery is disconnected. So if that is your only problem you need to have you battery tested and maybe check to see if its grounded good

I got mine back from BBA last Thursday. Great communications with the tech he called me told me what he could fix and he did it. I installed it last Friday night and it is working fine no more false high temp. Some display lines are still missing but I can live with that.
