Suggestion

With the availability of used gage clusters from dismantlers I would be inclined to swap out the bad unit with a used one.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Guys, A buddy with a 1999 996 tells me that the digital speed reading is garbled and the dealer quoted him $ 2k to replace the unit. Does he have any repair options? Thanks, Ned

POST 2Original post

Some folks on Rennlist.com or Renntech.org have talked about replacing the display with parts purchased on Ebay. I can't remember if it was speedometer or Nav screen?? In the early cars there is a way to access other info on the speedo readout. You were not specific about the "Garbling” If it clearly shows something other then speed maybe the display was inadvertently changed.??

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Guys, I will pass on your advice.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
