Quick poll 97-02 e320's
Is the LCD outsidetemp or gear position indicator on your instrument cluster going out ie; losing pixels? Both of mine are on the way out. I think this is very common on e320's.
Is yours?

I don't think this is unique to the W210. There are a lot of posts on the various forums so you are not alone. Depending on the specific problem, the fixes range all the way from replacing bulbs behind the instument cluster to replacing the entire cluster (it's pretty rare to be that bad as I recall).

This issue doesn't affect the pre-face lift cars. It certainly affects 2000MY and newer cars. Both displays (temp, gear position) on our 2002MY W210S are a mess. I guess BMWs have this issue, too, but the mfg stepped up and corrected the problem.
I think it's around ~$700 to fix it.

Mine are a mess on the temperature side, not quite as bad on gear side. Thgis is a pixel, not a bulb problem. I also hate to have stuff not working but MB price is too much vs the benefit.
I missed the post on the Pa shop that fixes for $750? Any info would be appreciated. The only post I recall was a place in Mass but you had to remove your own cluster and get it to them and then put it back in yourself and your car was out of service.

year 2000 model E-320 210 chassis
Intrument cluster was replaced at 63k; when I got it back it read 58k
g
d or bad ? Outside temp.reading piece came loose or is now possibly dead, now reading -37 all the time
piece is cheap to replace, but I've been to lazy to go underneath to do the job.
