Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I have the same dash, but dont suffer from he reflection problem, have you tried treating it with anything?

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Used some vinyl/plastic trim cleaner stuff on it once, along with a duster but thats it. I havent come across this sort of problem befor on any prevoiuse car.

POST 3Original post

When I was looking for my car I came across a number that had shiny dash syndrome. I think it's caused by previous owners getting a bit carried away with these trim dresing products from Halfords in an effort to make their car look really desirable I would try a good long scrub with warm water and pure soap. Vanish do a solid soap in the washing powder section in supermarkets - looks like a deodorant stick. Get your Missus to go into this section if you are embarressed Alternatively buy a trim dressing product yourself but read the box carefully to make sure it leaves a matt finish.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cheers for the advice, looks like a shopping trip is on the cards. PS I like the advice regarding shopping embaresment, sadly I'm single at the mo. Which means I have to take a deep breath and look the shop assistant straight in the eye when ever I buy something just a tad embarasing.......... ............I just hope the lacey pink bra fits when I get it home!

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

As you may have guessed from the title this has something to do with my dashboard. Basicaly it reflects quite badly on to the windscreen, for some reason it apears to be gloss black rather than matt. Any one else suffered from this and more importantly come up with a cheap but tidy solution or better still know were I can get a replacement non reflective dash from?
