what do u mean

#

Did I take it to a mechanic for servicing due to high milage?

#

Since I bought the car, its been to a mechanic a few times, other times I did the work.

Taken it for a bit of a drive since install, noticed the needle isnt smooth when going up or down? not sure if thats normal for it to seem "laggy" if u know what I mean.

#

Seems to be throwing accurate readings, just the needle isnt smooth when moving.

WOT?

#

The needle does seem fine if im slowly braking or speeding up, more so if im moving off from a stop or braking rapidly.

#

If it doesnt fix itself in the next few days, would you say get a new one or it should be good?

#

Second cluster the seller has sent me, dont want it to fail later on lol

Wide open throttle, and yeah I would try to get one from another seller if this one's also done after a few days

Contacted the seller, told them what I've noticed and what you said. Only issues are during wide open throttle the rev gauge moves almost if its lagging. And the speedo twice now didnt return to 0 when shutting the car off because it reset itself when starting the car up the next day.

#

I'm not sure if a "laggy" gauge is an issue, not sure will it get worse?

#

Should I buy a new gauge or should it be fine to use without concern of failure?
