Default GS 2008 Screen Problem. Strange dots

Hey guys, my infotainment screen started to show dots specially on black background, touch works fine. It started with a few dots a month ago and it is expanding. Any ideas.
thanks a lot

Did you replace the digitizer? China digitizers are good aftermarket replacement but after time 3-5 years they deteriorate. Since the digitizers are cheap, you can just buy another one and replace it. Its not difficult

Yes, digitizer is a clear touch pad layer that covers the nav screen
