Yes. I am the third owner of my 997.1 TT. The car spent time in Nevada & Texas and some of the cluster dial numbers and lettering are faded. Since I had no previous experience I did not know if this was normal or not.

I had mine for about six years, and barely drive it and always park in garage. One day i noticed this happened. So i guess its just another defect from porsche...

I think you can buy dial plates. I've seen yellow and red. Maybe they make white? Worth checking as it would be much cheaper than replacing the entire cluster.
