Hi all, having some issues with vehicle not starting, radio sat nag and clock going off and flagging every fault code in the library. Checked everything I can and it’s looking like a faulty instrument cluster. Has anyone sent one off for repair? Worth it? Is is a used fresh one the better option? Fault is intermittent so not sure they’d find it first time on a repair.
For clarification, the only main codes staying permanent are tcm- lost comms with instrument cluster control module, PAM -lost comms with instrument control module, 2008 HSE Stornoway Grey

Kevin, if you use the search function for Instrument Cluster there are quite a few posts on this topic and quite a few people have sent their Instrument Cluster for repair and seem happy with the result. There are also a number of things to check which may (or may not) fix the problem.
It is also suggested that you do a Hard Reset first to see if that fixes the problem:
