VW instrument cluster repair
On VW clusters we most often repair the central FIS (MFD) display: on Golf Mk4, Bora and Passat it gradually loses pixels until the driving data can no longer be read. We replace the display and restore full readability while keeping your original cluster.
Symptoms we repair
- FIS (MFD) display loses rows and columns of pixels
- The display fault gets worse as the cabin warms up
- Driving data can no longer be read (Golf Mk4/Mk5, Bora, Passat, Touran)
- VW Fox: unreadable odometer, door or lights warning chime not working
Common faults
The weak point of VW clusters is the central FIS (MFD) display. On Golf Mk4, Bora and Passat B5/B5.5 it loses rows and columns of pixels, and the fault typically gets worse as the cabin warms up. On Golf Mk5, Touran and Passat B6 the fault is the same, just a different display type. Importantly, the immobiliser and mileage are coded into the VW cluster, so replacing it requires programming. A repair keeps your original cluster with all its data, so no coding is needed.
