The problem of missing pixels probably most common for all above mentioned models. It is not only very frustrating to have an expensive car and being unable to see the mileage or information messages, but some states require mileage to be visible during the emission test.
Small tip before you purchase - the newer is your car the bigger chance is that you'll need new LCD display as well and if you'll keep your existing LCD display - new ribbon cable installation would not help. So if you decided that you are able to perform the installation - disassemble your instrument cluster and inspect the condition of your original LCD screen before you order this part.
If you see something like on the photo below - LCD needs to be replaced:
If you concluded, that you need the new LCD display - usually we do have them in stock as well (type BMWCLLCDSLV for BMW or RRCLLCD for Range Rover into the search box).
Make sure, that you have special soldering iron T-Tip for installation (type TTIP into the search box).
