Fatmobile,  don't all VWs have gauge clusters and lights that act weird?  Even with ground straps on all parts of the car?  It just seems that way to me for some reason.

 My gas and temp gauge go up and down together, ha. But that's probably just the voltage regulator contacts.
 What really had my cluster acting funny, I'm convinced,
was the little ground wire from the steering rack to the body was missing.
 My own fault, I didn't realize how important it was.
