I bought a 2008 M35 Sport a few weeks ago and noticed something odd last night when i put my car in reverse. There's a small section in the bottom left hand corner that i've never noticed before. It's almost like my camera has shifted or something and is not straight. I've seen others post about this on here, but didn't really get much help from their post. Any ideas/suggestions on how to fix this or where to take it?

Thanks,

JH

Have you looked at the camera itself and where it is mounted? Does it look like it has shifted in its hole? Is it in a place where it might get hit/touched?

Also, moving this to the Infiniti M section.

I have an 07 and mine has always done that (if I understand you correctly). It shows a slight part of the bumper and looks askew - mostly noticeable at night. I chalk that up to the fact that our cameras are mounted on the driver side and not in the center as they are in other makes and models. It's a bird's eye lens viewing at an angle but the guide lines are accurate. When the cam shows my lines evenly between the lines of a car park space, so is my car.

Henson,
Chock that up to Infinit's design. my 08' has it to. Bothered me until I realized that there was nothing I could do about it.
