There is a light sensor which changes the intensity of the display automatically depending on sun conditions and it does a very nice job.
However, you will see an outline of the whole assembly on your windshield when you drive into the sun. There's nothing you can do about that. HUD on or off won't matter, it's a reflection of the dash. In the F10, you can see the reflection whether you have the HUD option or not because the dash is the same on HUD or non-HUD cars. It's somewhat annoying.
I rarely see any light leakage on the windshield from the HUD itself. It has to be very dark and even then, the leakage is very slight. There is a brightness control in the iDrive for the HUD. And there is a button that allows you to turn it completely off.
I enjoy the HUD option. You never have to look down at your gauges to see how fast you are going ever again.

Thanks, you explained it perfectly... the sun reflects the HUD module on the windshield and that is what i am talking about. very distractive during the day when its not in use.
I just dont understand why nav is not a stand alone option...
