Do any one have the below package? I wanted to know what traffic jam assist do and will the car try to break itself if not on auto cruise? Do x3 have the option to lane change itself?

ACC Stop & Go + Active Driving Assistant

Be secure in the knowledge that the latest in safety technology is at your side, sensing all types of potential hazards. In addition to Active Driving Assistant contents, Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go maintains your selected speed. This radar-based system keeps your preselected distance from the vehicle ahead with autonomous braking, if needed. Also included are Active Lane Keeping Assist with Side Collision Avoidance, Front Cross-Traffic Alert, Traffic Jam Assist and Evasion Aid.

I have it but have not actively used the traffic jam assist feature. Having said that, as long as you don't somehow deactivate some feature the car will absolutely detect objects (other cars or pedestrians) and will brake automatically even with auto cruise off. As for lane change, don't think that is functional on the X3 but it is on the X5. The car will detect if you are drifting out of your lane and the car will pull you back in to your lane. You will feel it but can over ride the system. For example if you go to change lanes without using your turn signal the car will try to push you back into your lane but you can keep steering the car and override the auto system. Should be obvious but using your turn signal tells the system that the lane change is intentional so no "lane keeping" effort on the part of the car. The active cruise control is quite nice and works well though my one observation would be that it defaults to the maximum distance on start-up but that can be changed via coding.

Hi in G01 X3/X4's Driving Assistance Plus (SA 5AT)there is no Traffic Jam assistence, only aviailable for cars with fully functional iD7(G05 X5, G20 3series, G30 LCI) and with the option SA 5AU(Driving Assistence Professional).

And for the lane change assistence yes you can use Esys to code and make it functioinal. It's not available from stock by default in most areas.

Well I’ve never tried but the BMWUSA website shows there is traffic jam assist on the G01 though not the fully functional version on the X5 etc with full iD7.

G01 can have Driver Assistance Plus with ACC STOP and GO. You can use assisted driving to hold the lane and self drive essentially while holding the wheel. The car will not change lanes. The car will break for you and keep a safe following distance. The system works best when following another vehicle so it can use that vehicle as a reference for holding the lane and curves.

ACC stop and go will go and stop. When stopped you can press the resume button to continue driving again.

In Germany lane change assist is part of the package. It's somehow semi automatic. You need to have lane assist active and hold down the stalk to innitiate the lane change. It's working but I rarely use it. To have lane ssist working, you need good visibility of the lane markings otherwise it switches off. This is truely just assistance and far away from automated driving.

For ACC I use it every day even in city traffic. Works realy good but after 3 seconds of standstill you need to trigger the throttle by either pressing resume or the up button on the steering wheel or give the throttle a short push.

G01 X3 has Traffic Jam assistance - it just doesn't have the part where there is a camera in the instrument cluster that detects your eyes. Otherwise, it will slow down, stop and go at speeds below 20 mph and if it brakes for over a second, you just hit the RES button to resume.

Can the traffic jam assist follow vehicles during traffic with our intervention? But I am sure my car came with traffic jam assist included in in the driving assistance professional package

You have to actively activate it and as soon as you intervene for example by using the break pedal it is switched off. The system does not follow other vehicles. It stays in the lane you are in and if the car in front of you changes the lane, you won't. If the lane in front of you is free and your set speed is higher than the one of the vehicle in front of you which freed the lane, the car will accelerate to the given speed unless a new car is in front of you.

I'm actually fairly certain lane change does work with DAP in the US. Just hold the turn signal down in the direction youd like to go and the car will eventually go into the other lane.

I've done this a few times just to see that it works. I picked this tip up on these forums. I didn't have to code this on (I dont even have the ability to code this car).

Which car model and year this works on? Can u kindly briefly describe the scenario you have used it in?

I have a 2021 xDrive30e. I've used it on the highway to change lanes when there isnt much traffic around.

I have an iD7 G01 X3M. With driver assistance turned on and cruise control enabled, you can lightly hold the steering wheel and the car will maintain position in the lane and from the cars in front according to the speed you have set.

If you then indicate to change lanes and hold the stalk in the quick indicate position (so not fully engaged so it stays in the change position itself) then the car will move to the left or right itself without you needing to adjust the wheel. You need to hold the stalk in position during the entire manoeuvre otherwise the change lane action disengages.

I have a driving assistant professional on 2021 USA x3 m40i. As soon as I press the turn indicator the wheel turns gray and nothing happens, I have to manually change lanes. I don't know how it works for you guys ? which model year car you have ?

Probably it’s not activated for US vehicles. Mine works - I’m in the U.K. with a MY2020.

Are you shifting the position of the turn stalk beyond the quick indicate ( blink only three times) position?

No, don't push the stalk past the quick indicate point.

The dash indicator stays green.

If indicating to move into the left hand lane, the left hand lane line indicator flashes and the right stays lit.

Once the car has moved into the left lane and it's acquired that lanes physical lines the indicator stops flashing.
