My Ride: 2005 545i sports package, Nav, HUD, cold weather, Prem sound, Orient Blue, Auburn int. Steptronic
I'm finding that when the sun is behind me to the left, there's a purple line that apears within the HUD image. It's very prominent and distracting. Has anyone else seen this and if so, what's the cause/solution?
Thanks
Thanks

My Ride: (USA) 645Ci, Silver Gray, Chateau, Cold Weather PKG, Premium Sound PKG, Sport PKG, Step, NAV [Std Equip in 645], HUD, Satellite (SIRIUS) Radio, Aux Input, Bluetooth enabled using iPhone 3GS w/ adapter cradle - Build date - 01/05, Baby delivered 2/24/05
Not had any wash outs, lines or obscuring yet, but have not had car long enough to be out in all sunny conditions. However, one of my more frequent conditions is with sun to left and slightly behind. No issues noted. I believe my slope and viewing position is somewhat different. I like mine better than my test drives with HUD in 5 series (note I am in a 6er).
