Well, dealer says it’s the cluster. It’s a Canadian vehicle. Was the cluster damaged upon the conversion from KM to Miles somehow?

Of course, Nissan won’t cover it, or even supply the U.S. dealer with the Canadian part number. They won’t allow a U.S. or Canadian cluster to be installed, WTF!

The dealer isn’t recommending I install a U.S. cluster, they believe it will be an electrical issue. Does anyone have insight regarding this?

Honestly, I’m not sure I agree with the assessment, have no idea though, I do like this service department. I’m only out $160 for diagnosis, if I’m going with a new cluster, it’s an easy diy, but would need the correct miles programmed.

I just want Rev matching working, probably won’t use very much, but want my car functioning properly.

Thanks for help!

Update

Don’t believe the cluster in my Z is the original one. It appears to be a U.S. cluster, believe it was swapped in. MPH are in large white numbers, not KM/H. Plus, there’s an old inventory sticker attached to it, probably from a recycled yard. My car is only 3 years old, shouldn’t have an old faded sticker anywhere. There’s no signs of this being any sort of salvaged car, body and interior are flawless, no signs of bodywork. Only feature not working is the Rev Matching. I’ve already road tripped it, drives perfectly! They probably swapped with U.S. cluster after taking in inventory.

So maybe it’s the cluster after all?
