Nav Screen

Nav. screen has been damaged while cleaning. Any thoughts or tricks to bring the screen back to life. Looks bad when the unit is off but not when it is on.

You can buy a matte film to go on top of the screen. I did this on my car right after I got it as I know I will scratch it sooner or later. Look for a big screen protector (like for laptops or tablets) and cut it to size. I do wish they have tempered glass screen protectors for these cars but I guess there is not a lot of people who can't afford to buy these cars so R&D cost for the manufacturers are not feasible.

Same here. The car wash guys put some nice scratches on the screen. I did a search on the forum, and people had some luck using NOVUS 7136 Plastic Polish Kit (on amazon). Not sure if it is hard to do, or not. Scratches on mine are not bad enough to worry about now, but I will get around it one day. search the NOVUS 7136 Plastic Polish Kit on the forum to see results.

As mentioned not sure how good it is, or it works, but that is the only thing i have found that seems feasible. Supposedly its the anti glare film that is getting scratched, but I am not sure if that is the case. I will be asking the dealer when I head over for service.
