Deffo car age related as mine hasn't come back on since I turned Steering Intervention off and that was well over 12 months ago. Still waiting for the new update to install so whether that makes a difference I don't know but the last update didn't.

Upgrading to 11/2020.50 didn't change the behaviour for me

My 2020 M340i is on 11.2020.50 software and I have all the nanny state systems switched off except rear emergency braking. In particular, all lane assistance including any vibration and active steering is completely switched off. My central “nanny state button” is permanently amber and I do NOT have to reset any of the settings regardless of whether the car is in my own individual driver profile or the “guest” profile.

I wonder whether those of us with the DAP option get a bit more control over this?

You can permanently shut it off without coding. Go into Settings and then find the page for all the "Driver's Assistance" related options. I turned off the steering intervention, vibrations, and lane assist crap. I got rid of a previous 2019 BMW with the full blown DAP, and it was not any better. The system, is too aggressive and "jerky" when it tries to correct. I had issues where I let it do what it wanted on roads, and it would actually go into the shoulder and a few times...into the grass. It's a piece of shit option, and I am so glad I can finally turn it off and keep it off. BMW really crapped this one up, and even told me to "steer against it" as their fix (engineers).

I’ve got DAP. Interesting if that is the case.

In the safety systems. Button 1 in photo below. There is an individual setting which I have used to switch of lane intervention. I’ve left everything else on. Doesn’t reset unless you change using button 1.

Turning Traction Control Off turns it off too ;-)

For those who are seeing the steering intervention getting re-enabled, does the checkbox get ticked again or is the car defaulting back to
“ALL ON” and not set to “INDIVIDUAL” as per below?

Used the button on the dash, configured individual to turn off intervention but it keeps saying it will turn off at next engine ignition. No way as far as I can tell to turn it off permanently.

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).
Sounds like a nightmare

Ironic that it's supposed to enhance safety

This is the same issue I have. It retains all the other individual settings between restarts but the lane intervention one is always turned back on.

I just watched a video on BabyBMW and it’s definitely changed the behaviour in cars built after the middle of 2020. In it, he disables the steering intervention with just the ignition on and leaves it visible on the screen. As soon as he opens the drivers door, the box ticks itself!

Yeah even if you go into settings it turns back on after every restart.

I've got used to it now but it's annoying and always surprises you.

As others have said, it doesn't know if you are driving across the lane dividers to avoid an obstacle like parked cars.

In England we have to drive over the middle lines all the time.

It's a terrible option.

I'm also searching for permanently disabling this feature, i don't mind the vibration but having enabled steering intervention option every time I start the car is annoying and dangerous on some back roads with narrow lanes.
If anyone has codes for disabling, please let us know.

On my car the intervention only kicks in over 40MPH. So won't be tripped by moving out for parked cars or on narrow back roads.

Are other people finding that it kicks in at lower speeds?

Mine works as you describe so I don’t have an issue with parked cars etc. It’s only annoying if you are legitimately straight-lining S bends when there’s nothing coming. Whilst it turns on again if you turn it off it remembers the level of intervention - set it to the least intrusive and it’s not really a big deal.

This is me too.
Remembers "individual" rather than "all on" and keeps all my individual settings - except the steering intervention which it re-enables by itself every time I get in the car.

And because of narrow lanes near me sometimes I have to get quite close to the edge of the road to avoid oncoming traffic, at which point the steering intervention thinks I'm too close to the edge of the road and steers me into the path of oncoming traffic!!!!

This is obviously dangerous. I have to find a way to code this out before I inadvertently cause an accident.

I think someone suggested changing the warning to "Reduced". Have you tried that?

Yeah, I've tried all the settings and they are all remembered from one day to the next, the problem is that tick box for steering intervention.
Every time I turn the car off and back on again that box is ticked again

But if you have it on “reduced” it hardly wrenches it out of your hands. I admit I don’t like it either but you don’t need to be Schwarzenegger to resist it. Miss Marple perhaps.
