Is anyone else having issues with their radio display not fully, well, displaying? It looks like part of the display is blacked out, just wondering if it has to do with the cold weather (first noticed it when it was -5 degrees F outside).

Never mind, answered my own question, the display was fine this morning...and yes, it was about 30 to 40 degrees warmer than when the problem first surfaced.

I had this happen to me. I ended up getting a new radio under warrenty.

I had to take it in twice though. First time, it started happening when it got under 50 degrees. They couldn't reproduce it because they would let the radio warm up and then do a pixel test on it. I wasn't too bugged that they couldn't fix it the first time but I understand. Second time i took it in for it it was really cold, like 10 degrees. I made them keep it over night to check it in the extreme cold. They found and fixed the problem rapidly. They also made up for the return trip by loaning me a z4 for an extended test drive. That was lots of fun.
