I have to agree with Dave L2, I still leave mine up with the hardtop on and don't have any visibility problems.
The only time that I cant see much out the rear window is when I have the BMW suit case on the boot rack.

Sounds like low fluid but may be worth taking it to an auto specialist as topping up or changing is a bit complex but probably easy for someone who knows. I agree with DC.
