Hey guys,

Got a cluster issue, every tacho works fine besides the rev tacho, it doesnt give the true reading and just jumps whereever it wants

Am i looking at a new cluster? or is this a simple fix?

I have the same problem!! Someone must know??

yeah it is abit annoying lol with mine if i hit the dash a lil it usually works again but with bumps on the road it dies. should be an easy fix i know tacho and speedo are pretty common drama in 33's though from what i have seen.

bump this up.

k guys. my tacho stopped working thru a track day.

it will work when warming up but after a while it fails and drops down to 0.

if i hit a bump it will jump up...then back to zero.

My Power fc handcontroller tacho works fine......it leads me to believe its a wiring issue behind the cluster.. However it is all fine!!??

i have also replaced the whole dash cluster and this EXACT problem still persists. i have also checked all my fuses.....and they are fine

ANY HELP OUT THERE GUYS.??

i have used contact cleaner to clean the ecu pins, and the ignition module in the engine bay, and still hasnt fixed the issue.

its getting VERY frustrating !!!

i havent found a proper fix yet for my tacho but i notice by taking of the plastic cover off and pushing my gauge on the bottom right corner of it, it will work again. maybe i need a new tacho but i'm gonna drive around with the plastic cover off for now untill i get a new tacho. Not sure if it will work for you cuz my one was just shaking all over the place.

      Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):

      Yeahhhh, the costs have killed me. Spent more than the cost of an engine rebuild and it most mostly servicing and a tune lol.

      I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
