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.

Hey Steve, The good news is it looks like the LCD screen is fine, it's just the clear gauge cover that apparently melted from direct sunlight or summer heat. That should be a relatively cheap fix. The gauge clusters on these cars are easy to remove too. Lots of videos on YouTube. Just be mindful to NOT replace the cluster since the car's true mileage is stored on the cluster instead of being fed from the ECU.
