Default Sounds like a possible cluster problem.
See a thread below about having reset the cluster; there also may be a way to do this with VAG-COM.

Otherwise, it's new cluster time for you!

Pull fuse #11 and #15. Reseat. You will need to re-set your clock display

Default My temp gauge has been creeping ever higher over the past two weeks
Just hooked the car up to VAG-COM tho and everything looks ok engine wise... time for a new cluster for both of us I think

Default Hmmm. Are there any sensors the VAG doesn't read? I'd expect>>
more erratic behavior from the gauge if the cluster's going south...

Default I had a # of erratic dash display issues, solved by new >>
instrument cluster, but the fuel gauge was fixed by replacing a sensor-- all these covered under warranty.

Default hehe Not sure, haven't exactly figured out what all it can do yet :)
I'm kind of surprised that this is the only thing going nuts on me, I figure its only a matter of time before the fuel sending units go as well.
Hey, is that car clean yet?

It is my FSU or cluster? Fuel gauge often reads low at first then goes up to normal...
