Because I swapped a cluster from a US car for one from a Canadian car, I disassembled the cluster to keep by LCD displays that store the mileage (see picture).

I believe that the previous owner did not index the needle properly when changing the gauge faces.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

As a result of my gauge cluster swap, I now have a US gauge cluster with white gauge faces on my hands. $150 shipped anywhere in North America (by post with tracking number), OBO. Here are the details and rationale for the price way below market. Cosmetically, the cluster is very good. There is a bit silicone residue around the outside of a couple of the gauge faces where the carbon fibre trim rings were attached. I have removed 98% of it, but you might find some. This cluster works fine, except The oil pressure gauge reads about 0.8 to 1 bar low across the range (at road speed at operating temperature it reads about 3.2 bar instead of 4.2). I believe that the previous owner did not index the needle properly when changing the gauge faces. You could try to fix it, but I did not want to screw it up. The fuel gauge may also read a bit on the low side (approximately a needle width) however, I believe that the gauge on C4 is notorious inaccurate. Finally, this is a bit of a hybrid cluster, you are getting the front part of a US cluster (gauges and front cover) and the back part of a ROW cluster (LCD and circuit board). For this reason the sticker on back of the housing that shows the part as being a ROW (it�s from the Canadian cluster). Because I swapped a cluster from a US car for one from a Canadian car, I disassembled the cluster to keep by LCD displays that store the mileage (see picture). As a result, if you were to install as is, this cluster will display the outside temperature read in Celsius. That being said, you could do the same and swap yours to keep your mileage correct and the temperature in Fahrenheit (assuming you are in the USA).

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

There were a couple of PMs about mileage etc. So I re-installed it to show it functioning. Additionally, you will want to make sure that you reconfigure the bulbs for the warning lights to make sure that you are displaying them correctly.
