Stain inside instrument cluster

Featured Replies

I bought myself a skoda octavia 1.2 2013, overall in great condition.

My issue is that someone has cleaned the plastic infront of the instrument cluster and seems the water has leaked inside the casing.

It has left a nasty streak(see picture)and I was hoping someone could tell me how I'd get the cover off for cleaning off the stain.

A quick search on line brought up this:

Once you have the binnacle assembly out you can remove screws on the rear to give access the back of the part you need to clean.

Thanks for the reply!

Mine looks different from the video, could mine be a mk3? Would the process still be the same?

Mine is a MK2 and its accessed from rear once the cluster is removed. If removing cluster make sure battery is disconnected as you can put the imobilser on . Also while its off give the connectors at rear a good clean and make sure they are properly seated when replacing cluster.
