Automatic PDC

Hi All,

Just wondering how sensitive the automatic PDC sensors are to activate.

My F32 would activate when within a few feet of objects when manoeuvring slowly, my G22 seems to almost never trigger the parking screen. Only coming on when I am inches away from anything - which kind of defeats the purpose.

Also, my F32 would trigger the collision warning when briskly approaching a stationary car. My G22 has never activated this warning (double checked and is set to "early").

Is this as expected?

D.

I think they are pants to be honest. They are not as sensitive as other Bmw cars I’ve had previous. Already had a minor parking accident with a bollard as they it didn’t warn me until I hit it. I’ve learnt the hard way to stop at the yellow warnings.

Not as sensitive as I would like, I am already developing the habit of pressing on the button to make sure I see the front of the car on the cam.
