Quick update, for some reason, and it was not doing this before, but steering intervention seems to stay off now even when restarting the engine.
Going to continue to monitor it, but the last few times when I've checked, the box has been unticked. Hoping this remains the case. |

I've not experienced this lane assist thing. In what scenarios is it dangerous? I am assuming that the car is intervening aggressively when it shouldn't do?

Thanks. That sounds like far more trouble than it's worth . I guess it has its place if a driver was falling asleep at the wheel but I wouldn't want the car second guessing situations and dragging me into the kerb because it thinks it knows better. I wonder if accidents have been caused by this. |

There was reasonable time between uses. It kept re-enabling overnight for example, but now it stays off. |

Steering Intervention
Might keeps coming on. I have a 2021 M340i and even in my profile where i have set the lane assist to off and unticked the steering intervention box (which stays as programmed every time i swtich the engine on, the green circle is still there and the intervention still happens.

No I read it somewhere but didn’t take a huge amount of notice as the whole thing doesn’t bother me. Even though it turns on each time it remembers the level of intervention so I just set that to the least intrusive and forget about it.

On my 2021 G21 I have to turn it all off manually each trip by holding down the button below the vents for about 3 seconds. Not a big deal and far better than letting Big Brother kerb my alloys or pull me back into the path of a tractor. “Take back Control” I say- I’ll get me coat.

It is annoying if you are safely straight-lining S bends.

I agree with others above, this feature is on the whole far more dangerous than useful.
It’s not clever enough to know sometimes when you have an obstacle, say a parked car or a traffic calming chicane etc. on your left, when you steer right it’s nearly always not clever enough to understand this type of scenario and is dragging you back to the left, towards the very thing you are turning away from - outright dangerous. I too am a permanent red circle of shamer! The only times I ever enable it are if I’m on a long motorway drive and perhaps there is a chance I could start getting tired... not to be confused with I would drive whilst tired and rely on it!... but I will enable it say towards the back end of a long, late motorway drive... which would be rare under normal circumstances and absolutely never in lockdown. |

Yes - Lots of construction in my area and the car picks up on the old paint lines and wants to put me through a concrete divider. Found myself fighting the steering on multiple occasions. Not to mention the lane assist seems to kick in when I'm smack in the middle of the lane. My wife's 2019 Jetta has the same feature that is much more refined and "safe"... Still not a fan. I turned mine off without any issues or extra coding needed (US based).

I have DAP, and I've only noticed this stuff kicking in when I have driving assistance turned on.
But I do tend to indicate whenever I manoeuvre, so perhaps that's what's stopped me from finding it, |
