Hi you all.
I have a big problem and it seems i cant solve it myself.
A few weeks ago i swapped my old cluster with one with MFD. Everything went well.
After ... I had some problems and i had to mess a little with the wiring under the steering wheel. I then noticed that my fuel gauge does not work and the outside temperature was showing way wrong ( - 45 C) so i thought the cluster was wrecked and i fitted my old, boring one back. The boring one worked until today when the same problem appeared.
I hope not both clusters are f.ked and i found this topic

Hello everybody,

I know this thread is few years old, but i will give it a try...

I have mk5 1.9tdi, 10/2004, I have lowline cluster: 1K0 920 851 HX , and without any knowledge I bought this cluster: 1K0 920 873B produced on 24.6.2006. , with big display. Is this highline cluster, I am not even sure after so much reading.

For last few days I have been browsing this forum and everybody mention clusters finishing on 97x, but I havent found any cluster with 97x?

Now, can anybody tell me is it possible to put this cluster that I have into my car?

I have VCDS 12.12 and VAG COM PRO 5.5.1.

I have pin from my cluster but I dont have pin from new cluster. Is there any way to obtain it?

Next

I have bought MFSW, with new buttons. I have slipring with no C on the end. If I buy corresponding steering wheel control module, will I be able to code it?

I would really appreciate any help.

As above Eddie NL would be able to sort you out if you can get to him. Message him via eBay as I’m not sure how often he’s on here now.
