On some clusters it can be changed with aftermarket gear like VAGTacho or VAG Commander. If you are swapping clusters it's probably easier to swap eeprom chip from the old cluster into the new one.

Sounds like too much hassle, and don't want to go to the expense of a new cluster. Will just live with the issues. Thanks.
