Contax G2 with any lens wont focus to infinity

[rycm]

I finally dusted off my old Contax G2, and noticed that it won't focus to infinity with any of the lenses. Has anyone experienced this? It's been quite a few years since I used the camera. It all seems to be working fine (i.e the ficus attempt, shutter, etc.), but I noticed when I focus on far objects the focus scale does not reach infinity. Not sure if all it requires is a good CLA.
I am in Asia, does anyone know of anyplace that will service Contax?

What does the distance display in the viewfinder?

Fiddling with the lenes Screw for distance setting can be the cause and soulution. A pal of mine bought one where the 28 mm Lens never Focused beyond 5 meters. With a little help he found infinitiv.

It never indicates an "infinity" focus. Goes to about 14m. All near focus objects are fine. Manual focus to infinity offers sharper images.

Johank - can you find out what he did with the focus screw to fix the issue? Thanks

I asked him but he said he fiddeld until the vieufinder indicated infinitiv. And exposed film verifyed that.
