I also suspected regular techs would have no idea and a software update will need to be deployed. Was on the Autobahn for the last two days breaking it in and every "exit" sign caused the white box followed by the scrambled image. Please let me know if you find a solution.
I have first-hand experience with this. I don't understand the technical reasons, but the display problem happens on all ED cars with HUD while they're being driven in Europe. When you take redelivery in the US, the display will work fine.
