Is it posible to get a 4.8 gage cluster to work on 4.4
 

I have a 2001 4.4i and I bought a 4.8 gage cluster and after I put it in the car will only be i spanish and also the traction control will not work with it in and the light in the rpm gage will not work like in a 4.8? any thoughts?

It needs to be reprogrammed at the dealer in order to work properly.

You have the wrong cluster. Well thats not totally true. It uses a different EMS that what is in your car. There are a lot of threads on this. Use the search to find specifics, but as a short answer, not everything will work on the4.8is cluster. Since your X is an '01, you need a 4.6IS cluster. If you are using a used cluster, it will not work because the old one is coded for the vehicle it came out of. You need to use a new one so it can be coded correctly, VIN, EMS, ECU, etc.

Actually I just checked the post I am wrong. It will work, oil temp and LED will not work. I was right about the 4.6is cluster though. It will work, with some mods. If an indy has a GT1, it can be coded in less that and hour. It is noted there will be bugs. Such as some gauges not working when the X is cold and such. General rule is '00-03 would use a 4.6is, '04-'06 would use a 4.8IS

reprogram it. i did the same on an 01 , however the oil temp will not work. on our cluster that is where the mpg gauge is. and the warmup lights will not work. everything elsee will

The warmup lights will work if you got 4.6is cluster.

I ve got a 4.8 cluster on my 02 X5 4.4 The thing is that it CAN work properly - even the oil temp and LEDs. But unfortunately the process of coding is a personal secret of a programmer and I can not share it :(

PS it can be even fitted onto 3.0 and 3.0D but in this case Oil Temp and LEDs will not function properly anyway (this post is a small TIP :D).
