Default Disappearing HUD?

Hi all, new owner and member here. I have a 2023 90 p300, and I am having an issue that I don’t see here when I search.

The HUD display does not appear when starting, maybe 1 out of every 10 starts. If I immediately restart, sometimes it will appear but usually not. On a later start it will usually work.

If I move my head around and the light is dim enough, I can see that the display is working, but it is so dim as to be useless. I have the brightness setting all the way up, and when this happens I checked the brightness setting and it is still at the max.

(I don’t wear polarized glasses, I did see a YouTube video about polarized glasses blocking the display).

I also have the “shifting into N at a stop” problem, and an appointment at the dealer for next week.

Anyone else have this issue with the HUD not showing up?

I did a search but did not find any discussion.

I have a 2022 P400 110. Still a lot in common. I have the HUD and love it. I have no problems and polarized sunglasses do fine with it. If you are having both the HUD disappearing and the Shift to N, then I suggest (what I don't like suggesting) - take it to the Dealer. ASAP. Sorry about that and good luck!

BTW - Yours is different enough from mine that you may have a Service Campaign. Go to this page and enter your VIN in the lower right and check. (Link) Either way, schedule a Dealer visit soon so you can enjoy it. It's likely going to be a PITA, but neither of these are possible/easy for a DIY'er. Again, Good Luck!

Thanks for the reply Grouse. (I think I watched a YouTube video that had a front license plate of YALL-166, was that you?)

This is my first car with a HUD and I surprisingly really miss it when it’s not there.

Thanks for the TOPIX link, I checked and no outstanding campaigns for me.

Yep, that’s mine! Send a link. No idea what carnage or stupidity someone captured…Hope it’s epic! Doubtful, though.
