Yep, had this happen only once. Lost the numbers and color ring on the tach. Everything went back to normal the next day and haven’t had the problem since. I also thought it was in mid-update, and thankfully didn’t have to take it in to the dealer for a diagnostic. Other than that one glitch the...

Happy Father’s Day to my Dad in Heaven. This is the first Father’s Day without you. Thank you for being there, for the love and support. Miss you!
