    I just got the vehicle on the July 17th, and have some questions about the audio system.

    1. When it's sunny outside, there's so much glare on LCD of the nav system that it makes it almost impossible to use it because it washes out the colors so much
    2. It says it in the user guide that you get 6 presets per source (usb/aux excluded). However, it only allows six global presets. I know that because whenever I change the source the presets from the previous source stay on the screen.
    And no, the visors do not fix the glare problem. Any solutions or insights?

    Have you found the display brightness and contrast controls?
