I was on a spirited canyon drive and at one point I heard like a bang, sounds like I hit a rock or that something fell in the dash. Later on in the drive I was in the Apex of a turn and lost count if I was in 2nd or 3rd gear, I looked for the HUD but it was gone!

Anything like that happen before, taking it to the dealer soon, maybe after thanksgiving!

There is also a buzzing noise coming from the HUD when I accelerate past 3000 rpm!

I turned off my HUD the second day I owned the car by mistake.

Hahaha, I was dropping mine off at the dealer once....and I said, "oh yeah, and my hud isn't working either"....he walked over pressed the button and said, "all fixed"...yeah, I felt a little stupid.

 

[khyber]

It was the button, thanks everyone!

Disappointed in myself, lol

 

[Hasan Shaikh]

LOL!

Glad it was only the switch. All of us have done the same at some point during the ownership.

I guess it is bound to happen with a car that has SO many buttons Can't wait to get mine and try them all:biggrinbounce:

 

[EGBOZ]

It was the button, thanks everyone!

Disappointed in myself, lol

Way to man up and admit it!

I have never turned that switch off since like the first month or so I owned the Beast, so I could see myself in the same position....maybe just dodged a bullet there....thanks! :byebye:
