Upon starting the car last night, my thermostat's LCD screen displayed not only the two temps and settings, but a variety of lit spots all over the screen. The only factors that were different last night to today would have been: it is damn cold here in PA and the car was parked horizontaly on an incline of about 35 degrees.

Has anyone else ran into this issue? To any resolve as well?

Can't tell ya, but if it's like the temp display on my 190-E, it'll die a long, slow, agonizing death until there's no display at all. I think it's typical after a few years for some of these displays to go away.

I guess I will just wait until it warms up a little and replace it... until then, i will just tell people it's a highly sophisticated german engineered snow-flurry detection unit -- the more lit dots on the LCD; the higher the chance for snow.
