Hey JP, with this camera setup on this video, I could just see the road in front of you. It would have been much better seeing the live cockpit display. Is there any way to show both the cockpit display and the road in front on the car? Keep up the awesome work. I wish the genius at my local BMW dealer were better versed on a lot of functions.

JP, Road view (incl HUD) looked good. While staying safe, are you able to back away a bit from the pedals (move your seat rearward)? That might give a better FOV so the inst. cluster is also visible. Other option would be to change the camera to one with a wider angle lense. Thanks as always for the helpful vids!

Hi. Thanks for doing the video. I have an older X5 with professional and at highway speeds it ping pongs between the lanes. Very annoying but helpful as a second set of eyes. Does this drive smoothly and not ping pong?
@BMWofFW Жыл бұрын
So the older models do ping pong a little bit… This was fixed in 2021 with the newer models and a better algorithm to minimize ping-ponging… A 2022 update also further smoothed out its lane keep capability

So the three month trial activates, basically everything except for highway assist… Depending on the model, you may or may not have augmented reality view in your instrument cluster, but you should still have all the other benefits of drivers assistance professional.

I have acc pro on my 330i, I never try using assisted plus, I only had the one where you have to put the hands on the wheel but it turns. The only time assisted plus engaged was when I got into a traffic jam on a freeway, it automatically changed to assisted plus. But now, I guess I just need to try to switch it manually, I thought the modes were only normal cruise control and acc.
@BMWofFW Жыл бұрын

I would like to see how it behaves if I don’t take over when the exit comes up. I ask because, I know this is L2 with L3 almost ready in Germany. I previously had L1 last year. It would get confused when I was only wanting to go straight on the highway but out of fear I would stay in the far right “slow” lane on very long stretches of highway. The white lines would steer the freaking thing off the Hwy going 80mph thinking the white lines off the exit were still the Hwy. I know this particular new L2 only works on bmw mapped hwys. What if I don’t have navigation activated and just want it going straight or I’m using apple or google maps in CarPlay. I’m going to assume those have nothing to do with this and the mapping for this is something internal I cannot see. Which brings me back to the first question about the white lines if I’m using this in the far right Hwy lane. Will it fly off the road like the my first L1 version of this tried to😂. Sorry meant that to be funny.
