I searched the archives but didnt find anything. Anyone know the problem. I really like the look of the RS6 cluster and i got a good deal on it so i jumped on it. If anyone is looking for a A6 4.2 cluster with carbon fiber backing and 48k miles email me. It was in full working order when removed and just is missing some pixels on the lcd.

I don't think that's a RS6 cluster. It looks like an A6 cluster with CF

Nevermind, after rereading the post, I assume that's the old one.

Default Here is the most likely culprit . . .

The gauge is broken because somebody sold you an old, beat-up, regular A6 cluster that they plastered with stick-on carbon fiber-looking stuff.

Genuine RS6 parts are never cheap, and you can see that the real RS6 cluster has a 200 mph speedo and the RS6 logo on the tach.

Default Thats my old cluster in the pic that i want to get rid of. My new RS6 cluster is in the car but dont

have a pic. The only problem with it is that the outside temperature does not show up. Sorry for the misunderstanding my post was a little confusing.

Could be a bunk LCD, did the seller verify that it worked?
