when it gets warmer mine does that too. I just give it a nice hearty slap on top and the needles bounce back to where they need to be

As to why it does that I don't know...

the only needles that work at the temp, RPM and fuel level...... think its the cluster? or the speed sensor in the transmission?

changes are it's the speed sensor, my fairlady z had that problem jsut before i sold it, had to take a hit on the price cause of that problem. only when the car was driven hard for a while, (ie it got hot) it would do it.
