i had my car for about 2 weeks and the whole damn cluster went out, no more airco, speedo, nothing
went to the dealer and at first the told me reprogramming would work so i left the car there overnight but in the morning he called me saying the instrument cluster was fubar and the programming software came up with an error about it
of course i wasn't happy with the 600euros bill for a new instrument cluster so i went to pick up the car and drive it to another bmw dealer... where they told me the same thing.
went home and called the first dealer to have him order a new cluster
the next morning i get in my car and everything was working again, weird but true, the cluster had been down for about 4 days and it suddenly started working again
didn't have any problems with my car after that (of course i canceled the new cluster order), that's 4 months ago and it's still working.
have some patience and see what happens, maybe you get lucky
try to reprogram the car, see if that helps
