Lowered cars and PDC accuracy
Ever since I lowered the car with ACS springs I've noticed that the PDC accuracy for the front bumper hasn't been very good. I've had some uncomfortable near misses with parking curbs because of it. I would have expected that accuracy wouldn't be affected unless the car were raised higher. Anyone else experiencing this? Can the sensors be adjusted to compensate for the lowered height? I'm guessing no...

I'm running ACS springs and my car didn't pick up curbs before or after the install. I just back in or stop short since I scraped the MSport bumper before the springs. It isn't the answer you are looking for, but I think the sensors generally suck regarding front curb detection.

You do realize that the overhead view feature is not standard with every F10?

I'm trying to sort a way to hook up a front camera for us lowered guys.
Only info I have found so far is to get a nav-tv module, hook up another camera to the module and hit a button when trying to park so the camera turns on and saves our bumpers from impending doom. |

With a lowered car, I like to back in to not hit the curb with the front.
