Default instrument cluster replacement

Has anyone had any success getting Audi to foot the bill for an instrument cluster replacement?
2001 225tt coupe - dead tach, dying center display, temp gauge way off

No - I spoke with the Audi of Germany - The mainstage Audi. - They gave me the run around and said they couldn't /wouldn't repair it. - Even though BMW having similar issues has and continues to replace faulty clusters and GPS devices free of charge...

It all depends on the Stealership and if they will replace it or not, also if you have a third company like I do for a extended warrenty they dont know any better and will pay for it if it goes out. The place here in Oklahoma City is ok and will usually work with you if they know that it happens in most "TTs" but its not a recall item. It all depends on where your at I guess.

I know somewhere here I saw a class action claim letter, maybe the FAQ section? It might help get some attention. Hopeyou get some reflief. So far all I'm getting is a lazy fuel gauge. Sometimes takes a few minutes to register.

I got half of my cost covered under "goodwill" by dealer, it cost me $450 for a new cluster install due to bad fuel and temp gauges.

I've been quoted $880.00 by a "stealership", so $450.00 sounds about right. I can't believe they won't recall these things. An instrument cluster should never go out, should it?
