How to remove upper dash on 96 A4?

FullersCustomShop · 09-09-2007, 12:48 PM

I have a 1996 audi A4, the dash is warping on the sides and by the pass airbag. also have a blank odometer, all other dash lights work. I was hoping someone could share some tips on how to remove the upper dash panel and repair the odometer. I have not attempted to remove it yet, I really would like to know what fixing the odometer entails before ripping anything apart.

Thank you
Paul

Thank you very much A8 tech, I think I can fix the dash cover but my main concern is what to do about my blank odometer. Im not sure if its just a light or a gauge cluster? Will I cause myself any problems if I pull the cluster to inspect or will it disturb the computer?
