You can access a battery voltage reading through the service menu in the Navigation, if necessary.Its a little cumbersome to access...that's all.
It does fluctuate, in case you think its a static reading.

are you retrofitting the 2011 cluster into an 08? If so, please let me know how that goes.

For the looks on it, that looks to be an 08-10 model.

It looks like they just got rid of it. You can read oil temp in the 08-10, as well as voltage.

That's awesome Digger!!!! Learning new things about this car every day. For the battery junkies - what is a safe reading for the voltage?

Never dropping below 9v when starting. Any other reading is pretty academic because voltage under load is what counts.

I sort of wondered about this when i was doing the battery swap. You mainly worry about this when starting the car, and if it doesn't, the gauge isn't telling you something you don't already know.
When driving around I don't see any real practical purpose.
