Yeah, I get that some but not enough to bother me. Usually if I pull the shade on the moon roof and it fixes the problem. Tint helps but generally when you’re in direct sunlight your screen is gonna loose. But I also drive with my screen off more than on.

Yeah, daylight + sunroof shade open = NO NAV. I usually dont have the roof open unless I dont need the NAV or its night.

And the aerotect protector I have on it makes it even worse.

Happens to me once in a while, but not enough to drive me crazy. I have tints so that helps quite a bit.

warrionex, that's a good idea. For $12 I think it's worth a try.

I don't have NAV, but I wouldn't expect this problem to be even close to the "most annoying thing in the world". I've listed just a few things below that I would consider more annoying.
  • cops
  • harley davidson motorcycles
  • school zones
  • door dings
  • weak condoms
  • whiny kids (see previous)
