tach starts below 0
 

Long story short, the plastic shield that protects the gague cluster isn't in the car and my buddys kid, who is 2, while sitting in the car just enjoying the car messed up the cluster and broke it/ moved the nedle. When I start the car, the whole rpm range is about 4k low(on the tach). Is there any way to get it back to the way it sould be? would a flash of the tune fix it?

move the needle back? lol. lift it off and put it back on

Let the 2 year old fix it. He broke it!

Flash and tune will not fix it. Its Likely the mechanical's are damaged.

^^^ This. Go check out LED swaps for the cluster or cluster dial swaps for how to do it.

Turn it back the other way until it settles on 0. The needle slipped one way, it might slip the other way.

thanks for the idea, i'll give it a shot

You can always add it to list of other redundant features that appear on our dashboards..

Where is there a redundant tach?

Not quite but we do have a redundant speedometer.

Yes but this is a thread about issues with his tach not his speedo. So yea point of your comment?

Just leave it. At idle, you will actually be producing gas. But please do not shift at indicated redline.

As per the above response.

I see nothing at all referencing issues with the speedo on any of the comments or the OP. Other they you just throwing out we have a redundant speedo (We all know this...)
