After 30 mins of testing(SM trying to back over tech/different situations) the conclusion was.... "BMW has toned down the responsiveness to the sensors in the G05's!" They also added " when reversing, every time one is touching/activating the brake, the sensors must restart again once pedal is released!!!" After testing this insight myself, I tended to agree. We all agreed, POS! Even a low priced Hyundai has a much safer system. The sensors brake reacts when there is about 5>6" space.... hardly a safety net! Absolutely a FAIL!
Any improvement noticed with adjusting the sensitivity in idrive?
