PDC Sensitivity G20

[VirtualM]

Hi All.
So I have just the reversing camera but only PDC for the front. I find that I get way to close to kerbs when parking, before the PDC warns me. Is there any way to increase the sensitivity of the PDC?
On another note, has anyone tried installing a WiFi operated small front bumper camera, that notifies you on your phone with an image, which then extends to the car screen?

You complicating life man.
Just practice parking without all these fancy gadgets like the good old days.

Eish bru. Would be great to get back my good sense of judgement when parking. Technology has really messed us up. But with a new car like these BMWs, have to protect it from my silly parking skills.....

Just reverse park....

Theres no way to adjust sensitivity on PDC. It just doesnt pick up the kerb because its below its field of detection until you get much closer.
I would not drill into a g20 bumper to install a wifi camera and the power wiring etc! Also the hassle of pulling out my phone everytime I park is just too much.

No Lie..... On my Golf 7 R the PDC picked up pavements alot more accurate and i kind of got used to it.
On my g20 the 360 view does give me a better view of the pavement but the PDC will only sometimes pick up pavements (Guess its dependent on height)

Maybe you should do the 360 view retrofit. Its much better than the circus you posted above

Tell me more about the 360 view retrofit please. Direct from BMW?

There are a few videos on Youtube of the retrofits being done.
Im assuming that the parts are available from BMW however the coding might needs to be done 3rd party.

You can also get what you need from a M340i thats being stripped at a scrap yard since most pre LCI's was specced out with them especially the earlier Launch Edition models.
