Not sure what I'm gonna do about it, but I suspect replacing the cluster is the only option left, or just live with it until it fails completely and then replace it.
That sounds very annoying especially having to configure everything next time you get in, I understand you don't drive the vehicle often so that makes it even more frustrating... assuming the data gets reset if it is not driven for more than 1 day?

It varies. Sometimes it's overnight, sometimes it happens just parking it for a couple of hours, sometimes it doesn't happen at all. Actually, given that I don't drive every day, the annoyance is somewhat constraint as I don't have to deal with it every day and I have to wait for the revs to settle anyway before I can drive off. If I have to live with it, then be it, but it would sure be nice to get it fixed. This is the problem with these modern cars. The complex electronics will eventually fail.

Ok, and I thought every once a while is annoying but if it was your daily driver instead, every couple of hours will (I mean, if I were you, pull my hair out). I understand it is a first world issue though.
