6WA cluster upgrade problem

Hello Guys,

I purchased a 6WA virgin cluster from ebay, the guys helped my program it and its working kinda ok, the white and orange that shift at night time works but I got a feeling its not right, kinda delays, sensitivity and just wired.... I decided to check ista for error and I found one error with code D016DD , my old cluster has no issues and that code was not present..

I searched the forms and no one mentioning this error.

I let the car sit overnight and checked again but still no luck, resetting all the coding to original status and re-code and still the same.

Please help

I attached the pictures of the error

Normal as long as it goes orange when completely dark.

Potentially a combination of electric power steering and placebo effect.

Very strange issue. Maybe the car was too outdated for the replacement cluster? Glad it is fixed though.
