I noticed there is a white line horizontally below the current speed indicator (numbers) on the HUD. It looks like a faded crooked line and not has sharp as the other images on the HUD? Is anyone seeing this issue? The white faded line is like a long underline where the current speed is and next to the MPH. See picture.

This is normal on 2016/2017 models

The line under the speed value is normal on all 2016/2017 Lexus models.

Ok... So... Everyone else has the issue. Mine started out small and has grown over the last month. The dealership told me the projector was bad and they are going to replace it. IF everyone has the line, then I think I will have them NOT rip the dash out and replace it.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but this line is not normal. Why is it there? It serves no purpose, and it is not even straight. Maybe Lexus sells so little of these vehicles that they will not admit it is a problem because you will have to basically rip out the dash to replace a new HUD. This is disappointing for a car of this caliber.

I agree. But I am not sure if there is anything what can be done. BTW, do you know if other Lexus cars with HUD have the same problem (RX, LS...)?

I looked in the manual, and the illustrated picture has this line too, but it is straight. What is this white line for? Does it turn red when you exceed the speed limit like the new BMW HUD, or does it get shorter when you are nearing your destination when you have NAV on?

I would not agree and and as they all have it, it IS normal, both my new LX and RX show the same. It does not change color, get longer or shorter, dance to the music . . it is just there. Much bigger things to worry about, but I guess that is what these forums are for.

Thank you. It looks that Lexus finaly resolved this issue for 2017 model year. Can anyone else with '17 LX570 confirm this? Maybe it's time to ask Lexus to fix it also on our '16 LX :-)

looks like the 2017 lacks the line. Maybe make an appointment and see if they can repair.

I can't speak for the Canadian 2017 LX version, but the US 2017 LX model still has the line. I saw it on the vehicle. Could it be all vehicles are defective?

Just curious, what are the bigger things to worry about in this piece of perfectionist (POP)? Aside from life's challenges, is there something about Lexus you want to share with the rest of us?
