Problem: The sun is shining and the dashboard is mirrored on the front shield. AF thinks this is an object and focused it, therefor the street is blurred. I tried center, spot and average.
Is there an opportunity to make a infinity focus?
 
The lens is a fixed focus lens which has a range which includes infinity if focus was correctly set at the factory.

You need to remove the reflections.

Post a frame so that we can see the problem...
 
I tried to remove the reflections, but I didn't found a better place for the cam.
First picture was taken today in the car and the second on my bicycle. You can see on the first that only the range of 2-3m is clear

Well I can see the problem!

Hard to believe it is all due to the reflections though.

Have you cleaned the lens and the window glass properly?
 
it's not auto focus, your lens is out of focus

your car windows also look filthy which doesn't help
 
No, I cleaned the window before, this isn't the problem.
Maybe the angle of the windscreen to the dashboard is so unlucky, that I got all these reflections. It is a Fiat Punto, has anybody this car and
found a better place for the cam?
 
I have terrible reflections in my fiat 500, too. I added a circular polarizer to greatly reduce it but your camera is obviously out of focus as has been stated by others in this thread.
