dont appear to be any problems just the ends of the needles are looking as if they have had a lighter held on them briefly kind of like what an ambi pur airfreshner did to my stereo when it leaked but this is going on inside my dials looks like some liquid has come in from the petrol guage needle centre and melted any plastic it has touched

I remember in my 3i, one of the guages (can't remember if it was fuel or temp) had a "wet patch" on it, kinda looked like an oil stain really...

Often wondered how it got there, but wasn't that fussed
