I have a 2005 Cayenne S with Navigation. For a wile the unit has suffered from the occasional reboot. And for a couple of years now, the screen seems to invert the colors. i.e. black text on a white background. And lots of streaks. It used to happen occasionally but now is pretty much all the time. I used to fix it by tapping the screen. But those days seems to be over. To me it seems like it might just be "cold solder joint". So possibly easy to fix with careful disassembly. I certainly don't feel like buying a new head unit. Has anyone experienced this before? Do you have a fix that does not involve buying new parts? I am an EE and am quite electronically inclined. I'd rather not waste the time if it's instead some bad chip that's not discoverable or obtainable... Thanks

I have exactly the same problem on my 2005 Cayenne S. And it was also following a windshield replacement. And it is the passenger side. In my case, there seems to me to be a lot of play in the wiper arm linkage. The two parallel arms seem pretty sloppy. I ordered new arms from the dealer. But before I pick them up, I just wanted to verify that is the problem. I tried removing the passenger wiper arm. But the nut and bolt just spin ... Specifically, the one closest to the passenger side. This does not look correct. And I cannot disassemble further until I solve this as it holds the cowel down. If it was supposed to spin, there would be some way to put an torx-wrench on it to hold it. Can anyone comment on the spinning nut and shaft? Thanks
