Driver assistance temporarily limited?

SlowX6M · 04-15-2021, 08:05 PM

Got this message several times, when driving in rain. I assume its just cameras being blocked by droplets?

Yes I just got the same tonight. Mine corrected itself after a few minutes. I assume it's a mix of heavy rain blocking the sensor. I've had this during bad snow storms too.

It is indicating that is not completely functional, so do not relay on the system as it may not react normally. Usually it resets itself after issue (heavy rain or snow) resolves.

Just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything wrong going on, I don't rely on those systems at all.

I get this time to time. I usually corrects itself after a few seconds.

Can't say I've ever seen the stuff in person.

What Alan said. It happens to me in moderate to heavy rain.

lol. It's April here in St. Louis and I had to brush off the snow last Weds when I got this error lol. Also got to try out the xDrive doing 75mph on the Interstate with snow and slush with the 22" Performance Summer tires

Yesterday my plates finally arrived and the dealer installed them. As I approached home I noticed that I had that same warning. I guess the license plate is partially blocking the front radar sensor. However in the picture to the right of the message highlighted the sensor right below the plate. Anyone else experience this and how did you resolve it?

post a few photos of different angles. it sounds like they may have mounted the front license plate mount a bit too low. I had no sensor issues with my dealership-installed front license plate mount in that area, but I still moved its location.

All these assist are useless while being annoying. Wish there was a way to option them out.
