Has anyone experienced a failing HUD?

Started the car this morning and was greeted by a flickering HUD that eventually turned into just some red colored bars that look like old static on TVs. Has anyone experienced something like this before?

I started it and drove to work, and tried pressing the button, and it came on with my speed once, then reverted back to the red bar static stuff. The real question here, is would this be a failing HUD or something in the MOST connection system supplying the information, given that it's still lit and everything, just crapping out what it's showing on the display.


An interesting note, when I use a different key, it turned on immediately, and failed a little into the drive. For some reason, when switching between keys, it lasts on a little bit longer. It's pretty bizarre. I will read the codes when I'm home and see what it says.


I'm gonna miss using this thing, probably one of my favorite parts of the car. I imagine a new one will run several $1000s so not really that interested in spending that to fix it.

Here's a picture
