When I start my car every morning, the display is faded and improves as the day progresses, I don't know what's causing that,it only started about two weeks back.The wording and numbering will be broken so am wondering how that happens.I expected that to happen maybe due to exposure to heat but it's the opposite.

Probably is the LAD display is starting to fail, if you have broken lines and parts of digits missing, this is a sure sine that the dash unit has failed, you would be better off looking for a good second hand dash unit.
