Looking for a price to get my instrument cluster repaired. Audi A3 8L 1.6 2001. Currently the cluster works Intermittently. The only part that works 100% is the Digital clock and Date/Time. The rest (Temp, Fuel, Rev and Speedo) will sometimes flicker on and off – can sometimes run for a few miles and then will switch off again. On the back of the cluster it says 8L0920950E SN 353990401071710222. My postcode is E16 2SN. Need any more info for a quote? Cheers
