I disabled this feature as its a hindrance rather than being useful but its re-enabled itself.
Is there a way to permanently disable, another settings somewhere perhaps?
Only asking as on several occasions i'm driving relatively slowly around a car turning off the road and the breaks slam down.
Have to admit this feature obviously works but way too sensitive and off putting!
-
must say never really had any interference with it. is it when the red thing on the dash comes on and beeps at the same time?
-
Thats the one!
I've since read this setting is always re-enabled but have changed the default sensor configuration from 'Medium' range to 'Very close'
Hopefully this will prevent unnecessary alerts and breaking when manoeuvring around obstacles at 10 MPH :\
-
I've had a few alerts (mainly when I turn onto the coast road at a crawl and a bus goes up the side of me to go straight over the roundabout). I have never had the car brake for me yet though.
-
I've had the red sign come up a few times mostly when approaching a roundabout where the entry is a curved road and there are cars in the lane next to you. Only once has it tried to brake itself. I was thinking it was a bit over sensitive.

Well today it remembered the 'very close' setting so this will make do as today like mentioned, crawling around a slight bend in the road where cars are on either side of you I had a short faint bleep rather than the end of the world red alarm sounding and certainly no breaking this time.
