I live in California and have owned a 735i 5 spd (grey market import) for almost 7 years. There have always been little problems like the drivers side seat controls not working or the miles per hour gauge not working. Now my mechanic says the instrument cluster has to be replaced. This makes sense since on a regular basis the only gauge working is the RPM's! Yep, a bit of problem if I'm going on long drives with no engine temp or fuel gauge. Does anyone know how to fix this or where I could get an instrument cluster. The BMW is now my second car, it has approx. 234k miles on it and worth about $2,000.00, so it's hard to justify a huge expense. But it drives beautifully and I'd love to have it for awhile longer. Thanks in advance!
