I have two issues with the rear camera:
1) The camera is too close to the lip of the tailgate - when it rains, it pours over the camera completely obscuring the view.
2) At night, the camera has poor low-light performance, and the rear back-up lights aren't bright enough to provide any illumination, so it is not useable in the dark.


Has anyone else had these same experiences???

Yes, rain collects on the face of the camera and distorts the view. Happens on my '17 BMW 5 as well.

Same exact complaint and was going to raise it here. My Toyota Highlander has excellent night vision, but the e-tron can't see anything on a dark street. Audi should learn from Toyota.

...and to add to the issue, with the back window so heavily tinted, it is very difficult to supplement what you see on the cam with simple looking back.....I have made a practice of carrying a rag in the back to wipe off the camera. I am in the Pacific Northwest, to rain is a problem!
