Hi All,

I was just wondering if any of you have experienced a brighter area on the reversing camera at night, as shown below:



During the day it looks the same all over  (and much clearer of course) but at night I seem to always have this brighter section to the right hand side. I have ordered new LED reversing lights which should be here this week but I am not sure if this brighter area is actually linked to light bleed from one side of the car only or not.

Any feedback or thoughts would be greatly appreciated as always.

Thanks folks  :D

I think the PD camera is different and possibly not as good as the one in the GD.

It looks a bit to me like the camera might be slightly out of line. I'm predicting it will be even more obvious with the bright globes.  :undecided:

Thanks for the reply gents, seems a bit strange. I'll see what the difference is with the LED bulbs in play, if worse or no better I'll get it checked over when it's next in the dealer for a service. Will update in due course  :goodjob:
