Ghosting and dropouts.
The display stutters, shadows, or blinks whole sections. Vibration and temperature both trigger it. A failing LCD, announcing itself.
Gets worseThe Slough visit
New glass.
Nothing else changes.
From Windsor to Slough is a short hop for us, and Berkshire as a whole is core territory — SL1, SL2 and SL3 all covered at your home or workplace. What brings us over most often isn't keys or coding: it's the 500's dash screen quietly giving up.
It's a screen swap, not surgery. The failed LCD comes off the original board, the new one goes on, and the cluster goes straight back into the dash. Immobiliser pairing, coding, stored mileage: all untouched, because the only component that changed is the one that displays them.
A dealer can only sell the fix they stock: an entire cluster, ordered in, fitted and aligned — with the calendar doing the real damage, since the wait for parts and a slot is commonly measured in weeks. Replacing just the screen costs a fraction of that and happens the day we park outside your door in Slough.
If the fault turns out to be deeper than the glass, the same visit covers it: full cluster repair, module replacement and proper diagnostics are all on board.
