How to use BMW Parking Assistant

This is a demo of the the BMW Parking Assistant or BMW Park Assist feature which is available in some new BMWs. Thanks to the BMW parking assistant, the driver can maneuver in and out of parking spots with accuracy by having the system control the steering while you still have full control of the accelerator, gears, and brakes.
The BMW Parking Assistant will automatically scan both sides of the road for suitably sized spaces. It measures gaps using ultrasonic sensors mounted in the wing mirrors.
To start the process, simply press and hold the Parking Assistant button. When you take your hands off the steering wheel and release the footbrake, your BMW will take over steering, gears, acceleration and braking. But as always, be alert as you go through this procedure and be ready to take over the steering and brakes.
Let's take a look at the BMW Parking Assistant in a BMW X7

Omg im so glad I found this. Just got the BMW X1 and haven't use the Parking Assist

[@bmwblog]

Glad it was useful

[@andreistirbu865]

Baiii Omule, Sa Traiti! :)) Took delivery of my G83 last week. I hate the reverse camera fisheye lens... maybe this video will make my life a bit easier.

[@shelondawaller7358]

I've had my x1 since 2022 and just discovered I have park assist 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣🤣 This was so helpful

[@richardwhite3521]

Ford tech specialist here, the activation of this system is different than on ford’s, thanks for the guide.

[@bmwblog]

Glad to help

[@Cloud23Roy]

Can it parallel park on the left? I couldn't get it to work just for the right side only.

[@mirageycq]

Wow Thanks. I have never used it. I will try for sureI

[@bmwblog]

Most welcome 😊

[@Jameschung81]

I love this feature. Not to shit on MERCEDEZ BENZ but their auto park system requires the driver to move the shifter to D or R whenever it stops. With BMW you don’t have to. So much easier. That’s what we pay for in luxury car right? To do less but enjoy the car. Go BMW!

[@senthilonetwo]

What are the features using Park Assist? Which year model onwards have this feature? please let me know.. I viewed a BMW X1 1.5 xDrive25e M Sport in Cargiant

[@flightgearHD]

So what in understand is there has to be cars parked for it to function

[@johnw65uk]

I tried it on a ix1 it was shockingly bad at parking. First time tried to reverse into a parked car, second time did ok but close to dumpster , third time was on the white line and had about 3ft of space behind it.

[@jameswebblife]

Does it only work if it finds cars to park beside? I keep trying this in an open parking lot and it doesnt find any spots? Pls advise

[@lindahoover1077]

Screen options seem to be very different on my BMW. Is there a software version for this? Car model specific?

[@bmwblog]

Could be model specific

[@pejman2525]

My BMW iX3 2024 has carplay and baidou carlife only, how can I activate or add android auto?

[@platano3000x]

But brother what bmw does it

[@kinocchio]

This is way better than the Volvo. You have to control gas, brake and gear in that. This seems to do it all.

[@Enforcer_WJDE]

So no parallel drift parking assist yet?

[@KingRobinson-kl1ed]

What year is this BMW

[@jamesrothwell8693]

Can the G30 do this sort of parking also or only parallel parking?

[@warrior100girl]

It asks you to parkt parallel or length like in parking garages.

[@jamesrothwell8693]

@@warrior100girl Thanks!

[@josefigueroa4738]

Do you have to put it in reverse or does it by itself?

[@omanus197]

no it does automatically

[@Pq9569]

How does it park if there is no cars on the left or right and you say it only reads obstacles and not the parking lines?

[@bmwblog]

Yes, it's looking for space on both side. If there are lines, it will park between them

[@MarshallMathersthe7th]

Do you need it to park when there is no cars tho? :P

[@geneticjen9312]

​@@bmwblogAre you saying it ignores lines when there are obstacles but it uses lines when there are no obstacles?

[@lchaosgrimml]

Video is clearly fake. If it were a real BMW, it would be taking up multiple spaces.

[@BaezLife]

True, I can confirm 😜😜😜

[@VikkiAnn-ui1ci]

And indicators would not turn on

[@jaydub4066]

Do you have to pay like a monthly fee for that or it comes with the car

[@bmwblog]

It's an option

[@floriangogolinski40]

Does it come with the parking assistant package or do you have to get the parking assistant plus ?

[@bmwblog]

Assistant Plus

[@jtstrm]

What i have to push to do this?

[@MichaelMichaelMotorcycles]

The P button

[@lexxcluster7030]

How to cancel parking assistance in a process if I change my mind?

[@bmwblog]

There is a cancel option on the screen

[@lexxcluster7030]

@@bmwblog oh! I didn’t mentioned it. Will look precisely. Thank you!

[@aliozanerbektas]

The technology is here but I'm not ready to trust it yet.

[@cedricberketo9966]

Lol yea i was in a 540i and almost smoked a 330i trying to use this

[@MarshallMathersthe7th]

As much as i would love and trust my car, i couldn't let it do it by itsself. It's like having your 13 year old kid driving imo.

[@wadjo1]

Bro just do it.

[@matthewday8478]

I still don’t trust the rear view camera…

[@THUMBSUPBITCHify]

It’s been here 15 years

[@seventhson12]

Is this parking assistant plus ?

[@bmwblog]

Yes

[@skfunk4550]

My M2C will wait until i bloody do it myself otherwise it'll just stay there 😁

[@bmwblog]

yup

[@tribecalledshabbazz8758]

Here from pop smoke

[@MarshallMathersthe7th]

I'm sorry but i think this is scary, as much as i would trust that car, i just can't trust that it can park all by itsself. I had a scary experience with a Volkswagen caddy that also had park assist, it would steer very quickly and go quite fast with parking. This Bmw seems to be more calm when parking. Also what's next? Can i sent my car out to run some errands lol? Fitting a little note on it's windshield for the baker so he can put my order in the backseat? Haha.

[@h.l.4587]

for incapable car drivers 🤪

[@bmwblog]

Not necessarily. Plenty of situations where parking can be quite difficult.

[@christhompson3160]

Uncapable . For people who are incapable of spelling

[@eattravellovejoy20]

Its a safety feature especially for older drivers who are not as sharp with estimating close proximity.

[@platano3000x]

Yeah ok when the gps was create we saw ignorant just like that guy of the main comment

[@Therealfaxkellerman]

Yeah still don’t trust it.

[@cxmplexdrives9719]

Mine never goes off or when it does it’s the worst parking spot or not even a spot 😂 with the 360 cam though parking manually is easy and you won’t ever hit anything.
