Just got my 98.5 back from a performance shop. Had FP, boost, and pyro gauges done, brakes, alignment, etc. The fuel gauge isn't working. It always shows full, except when I fill it, then it reads empty for while until it drifts back up to full.
The owner of the shop said the sender unit is OK, it's a shorted out instrument cluster. He said I'd need a whole new panel, and suggested I check out wreckers. Now he wasn't trying to sell me anything, so I guess I should believe him. But a whole new instrument panel?!!
Has anyone heard of this? Has anyone had to change their instrument panel? Are there any other cheaper/less intrusive remedies?
