HUD Horizontal Position

I'm finding the hud is too far to the left. Not sure if it was the same on my last car as it's just the sld that's getting cut off.

There's no way to change it in idrive so just wondered if it can be coded right a bit? There's certainly plenty of room - I can still see it all with my head resting on the window.

You can rotate it in the idrive settings. Which kind of moves it move central or not.

You must sit leant over too far to the left, have you tried sitting up straighter while driving?

Thanks, I know about the rotation setting but that's not what I need to change, it just needs shifting to the right.

I did wonder about that but I'm pretty sure I'm sitting straight and the steering wheel and dash are central in front of me.

If I look at the reflection of the HUD screen (which btw seems to reflect the sun more than my previous one did), everything is being displayed in the left 2/3 of the available area, even when I've got the recent calls list up. It seems to me there's a lot of empty space on the right that shouldn't be there.

In that case their must be something wrong with the HUD calibration!

I can lean a long way left before the SLD gets obscured!

Thanks, that's what I thought. I only have to lean my head slightly left for half the SLD to disappear.

Another one for the niggle list!

That's a niggle for me as well. It appears that the view is slightly offset and not directly in my eye line. I've tried rotation but that's not the issue. Be interested to hear if there is a way.
