04 Jetta Wagon 2.0 BEV
No, not really. The ring splits in one spot and can slip on the shaft
causing the needle to bounce.

There is a plastic speedo drive gear in the transmission. They like to break
causing the flaky needle on the cluster.

Slowly oscillating temp gauge
The thermostat is a fairly simple replacement. But, make sure the engine is

Slowly oscillating temp gauge
Likely it is the thermostat.
Possibly the coolant temp sender.
Both have high failure rates.
Best of luck.
