Passat fuel/temp dials - Cambridge
1995 VW Passat. petrol CL

My dials have gone haywire.
The other day while starting up, fuel and temperature dials made a weird clicking noise and the needles went all the way round and tangled together. Now they are stuck.

Any ideas what has happened and how to fix it?

Thanks for your help.

I understand it is a common VAG problem.
My garage says it requires a new dial insert (£271 incl parts and labour)
Does anyone know of a Passat messageboard?
