  • Odd RHD C4 Dash

    I lifted this from a for sale add. Its not OE as far as I can tell but does any know any thing about it as it looks to good to just be a one off.

    Looks like a very tidy conversion, shame the needle doesn't quite match

      I own four different varieties of LHD C4 instrument clusters and have seen a local RHD C4 cluster and have photos of several RHD C4 clusters. None of them have that boost gauge.

      IMO that is a clever one-off.

          Well spotted, very neat.

          Never saw the poverty spec A6 dash with the extra storage before.

          Good share.

            So, based on the red line in the tach at about 4500 and the silver rings around the clocks, it has been suggested that this cluster is from a C4 A6 TurboDiesel. Does that make any sense?

              Hence why it's in the diesel section.


              There are two type of dash for RHD 4 gauge with tray only on 100's low spec as mentioned and 7 gauge . The variants come with the computer / warning display and if the gauges have a silver or black ring or for petrol versions the colour of the gauge faces.

              Just wondered if anyone had seen this type

                I guess this is the low spec type:



                And this is the higher spec (so neither had the boost gauge implying some kind of bespoke modification.

                  Well, there was a type of trip computer with a boost gauge.

                    Hmm....I was going to say that that cluster was for a V6 not diesel (because of the 6K+ redline) but that doesn't explain the boost in Bar in the trip computer.

                    Going back to the cluster in question, I examined a loose (in my hand) UrS6 tachometer that I have in my basement shop and found that the area below the needle center is completely wide open for the *possibility* of adding a boost gauge there. It would require more than a little skill and luck to install one there though.

                      I am guessing only S4 and S6 with 2.2t got the boost section in the trip computer. But I think the trip commputer itself should also work for a diesel engine.
