question about Lights in dashboard....

[Cesar.Imola4.6I]

Hello guys, ok, in the dashboard, where the orange numbers are, (the ones with the milage, tempeture, etc.)

I was at a light yesterday, and i noticed they were flickering, (not on and off), just like bright, then, fades some, back to bright, etc and so on,--like if the battery didnt have full juice-- any ideas, engine seemed ok, and it would do it even when giving gas.

Try moving the reostat wheel up and down a few times, that may fix it.

Evidently the LED display in the instrument cluster is a typical problem (in older cars?) - My LEDS sometimes are all lit, but usually there are 1-4 vertical rows that are out - My dealer says that the cluster display may fail - Mine is still hanging in there for the 7 months I've owned it.

My dash light that illuminates the mileage was out the day after I bought the X. Dealer fixed it in minutes.
