Default DIS goes white/blank

Hi,

I have a 2011 Q5 that I've had for about 6 weeks. Three times now, the Driver Information Screen has gone white/blank right after starting the engine. I've tried turning off the engine and then restarting and also exiting the car and locking it and then getting back in and restarting it immediately. DIS is still white. All three times were in the morning when I was taking my daughter to school and the DIS came back after I dropped her off and walked her inside the school (about 10 minutes). The Q5 is parked in a garage and it's not that cold here so I doubt it's temperature related.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Thanks in advance!

The Audi Q5 is a compact crossover SUV which was published by the German automaker Audi for the 2009 model year. It is built with the new Audi MLP platform that debuted in the Audi A5 coupé 2007.

It is built using the new Audi MLP platform which began in 2007 Audi A5 Coupe. The Q5 is the second Audi model in the range, after the full size Q7.

The dealership reproduced the problem and had to replace the Driver Information Screen which takes several hours. An electrical problem in the Driver Information Screen was causing the problem. Covered under warranty
