Unable to get the lane assist feature working. I have a July build 330i with the Drive Assistance Pro package and driving assistance in the live cockpit dash.
Drive Assist Plus works, but haven't been able to find the right combination of settings/speed for the lane change to work. I've used the 3-blink feature on the turn signal stalk (as opposed to pushing up or pushing down all the way) to try to activate and it doesn't work. Does someone have the requirements for the lane assist feature so I can try again...? |

It's disabled by default on US delivered G20. You have to enable it via Esys as detailed in other recent threads.

First, you need a car that has been optioned with this feature (not a standard option). I know it's included in the Executive packages, but not sure about the others. Second, you need to find an active traffic jam, this particular mode DOES NOT become available in the menu until/unless you are actively in a traffic scenario (as detected by the car's radar). Third, WHILE IN TRAFFIC, to enable this mode do the following: Press the cruise mode button to select the normal Lane-Keep/Distance control, set your speed, and keep some hand-contact with the wheel to let the LKAS do it's thing. You may have to be in this mode for a minute, to let the car detect the on-going true start-stop traffic. (Taking your hands off the wheel longer than 10 seconds or so will result in warning alerts to grab on) Be patient, do what it asks for just a minute until it's 'happy' with the congested state of traffic. Once the car detects the stop-and-start flow of traffic, you should automatically hear an audible noise/chime and see an on-screen prompt letting you know that Driving Assist Plus is now available. (THIS DOES NOT MEAN IT'S TURNED ON, it just means that you can now pick it). Touch the cruise-mode button *one more time* on the steering wheel and you should see the green-light indicators on the wheel light up. You should also see the speed limiter for the cruise auto-set itself to 40mph. That's it, keep your eyes forward and the car will do the rest. Acceleration/auto-stop/start/braking/steering. Rules for use:
I do this almost every single work-day - it's extremely easy to use once you know the 'rules'. The car then drives 5-6 miles of my commute for me. It's almost trippy the first-couple of times, especially when the flow of traffic picks up to like 39mph and then dead-stops - it's a trip to see your car handling those kinds of slow downs in a turn - without you having to touch a thing. |

Only caveats would be similar weather compromising radar functionality (and it has to be decently severe weather). Good to go in most circumstances. Also, LKAS will resume after an indicated/executed lane change unlike the Active Steering Pro (autonomous driving). |

I've never seen the plus icon show up on my dash and I have a Sept build 330e with all the driver assistance packs available, maybe that's an US thing only?
The car does keep the lane and starts/stops in traffic on it's own but hands must always be on the wheel or the warning shows up. |

In my build, I typically throw the blinker and as soon as I touch the wheel, it disengages the Active Steering Pro, turns-off the 'green lights' from the steering wheel which indicate ASP is active, and the LKAS is essentially 'temporarily off' until I'm stable in the new lane. Then LKAS auto-resumes. ASP will become an option again once the car determines that the traffic jam is persisting. But I have not seen a dash indication as you've shown - I'd love to know if the car do a trick I'm not aware of. Wonder if this is a geo-restricted feature...? |

Medio Man,
Thank you for the best, as well as, the most complete explanation of the use of this great tool. (I used it for the first time yesterday. Luckily, I'm not a commuter.) |

Also - after the latest flash was performed while in for some recalls yesterday, my the center of my central dash display now shows when other cars are detected in front, side, during ASP etc - interested to see how well these new dash enhancements work. |

It will not make lane-changes for you as far as I can tell in mine, but will automatically resume after you execute the lane change. Additionally, it won't take exits for you. I still find the assistance helpful. Feet off the pedals, a hand on the wheel that's generally doing all the work. But as with all things, nothing is truly autonomous yet, and the liability remains with the driver to pay attention. I drive a ~20 mile total commute through some heavy traffic for 6-7 miles nearly every day, and the traffic jam assist lets me completely drop my hands, feet off, eyes forward and blissfully gets me through the worst of it (no exits). That right there, has been amazing for me. |
