Ah, I misread your post. I have no explanation that does not seem correct.

In effect, this means that that due to the height difference between the tank's commander position and the ground the tank might spot (or be spotted from) a certain point although the los tool says otherwise.
My understanding is that the target line is taken to be from the height of the unit at the present time. Which is why if an infantry team is prone your target line from a way point next to a wall will show no LOS but once your guys get there and they kneel next to the wall they can see over it.
So, that issue with the PzIV actually sounds like a defect to me. If you still have saves showing that the target tool shows no LOS from a location but once the vehicle gets there the same target tool shows good LOS I would log that as a defect. At least to see what the explanation was because I do not thing that would be correct.
