HUD issue?
Has anyone else noticed their HUD acting up after it's been in the sun or maybe just when u first start to drive it? Looks like a bad glare or just extra "blue" all around the bottom of the display?

It is a case of refracted reflections. Goes away when the sun angle changes; nothing wrong with the system. Just like a lens flare in a camera; Change light angle and purported problerm disappears..

If the sun hits the HUD at a certain angle, it will cause some very strange displays to appear. It should go away as you change directions.

agree with the others who have noted that the sun's angle on the dash is the cause. when i first noticed this last week, it appeared that every icon on the hud was lit up! a few turns out of direct sunlite on the dash fixed it. whew! bub
