62 30... Notes on head-up display (330i xDrive Wagon, 328d xDrive Wagon, 330i GT xDrive, 340i GT xDrive)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 11 other vehicles, including the 2019 BMW 340i GT xDrive, 2019 BMW 330i xDrive, 2019 BMW 330i GT xDrive, 2018 BMW 340i GT xDrive, and 2018 BMW 330i xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: A special windshield must be fitted to ensure that the Head-Up Display image can be projected correctly

This windshield comprises three sections. An outer and an inner glass pane are connected by a wedge-shaped plastic film.

The wedge shape prevents double projection of the Head-Up Display.

When the windshield is replaced, the vehicle identification number and BMW Electronic Parts Catalog must be checked to ascertain whether the windshield in question is suitable for HUD  .

Example of the display with a conventional windshield: 

With a conventional windshield, the projected image is reflected on the inner and outer glass pane, producing a double image.

NOTE: Windshields for Head-Up Display, for vehicles with model year up to 2012, are marked with the letters "HUD" on the outside at the bottom right below the seal (1)  .
