Guess I'm lost as how mine did it, maybe certain situation?

Yes I have auto parked. Yes it does it all. It is not that the hardware or softwre is not able to do it. As russelldav pointed out, the auto braking is supposed to only work in reverse which was not the direction natahoa was moving.
With that said, it is a horrible design. If they did it for reversing, they should have implemented it for going forward as well with options to disable either one if the driver wants. To be fair though, with all the available camera angles, visuals, beeping, etc, as long as you know it will not stop for you, there is no reason to bump into things. |
I know we're on the same page regarding "horrible design", but there are plenty of reasons for it to work even with the camera "capabilities" when those cameras will regularly show your back up camera when going forward and turn off by themselves in the middle of parking maneuvers willy nilly — X5 camera handling software is currently stupid, buggy, and unsafe as well.
