- In today’s video we’re going over the Parking Assistance Package and all of the features that the package includes. We’ll talk briefly about the features, then go in depth on how to use them in the real world. For $800 as optioned on this X5, the Parking Assistance Package is fantastic value, as it includes 4 distinctly useful features: Active Park Distance Control, Drive Recorder, Parking Assistant Plus, and Surround View w/ 3D view.

What I love about Ronny is he gets right to the point. No chit chat. I often still have questions watching other channels. But not here. You cover everything anticipating any questions people will have about all of your demonstrations. Very talented man.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate that positive feedback, and I'm glad you're finding the videos helpful!
I can only echo the comment, well done! ❤
Love your videos! You explain every option so well.
Thanks so much, we really appreciate that. Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Nice job explaining 👍. Love my 23 240i just have a hard time remembering everything. Love the tutorials
Great video and very helpful. Thank you!
Very informative. Thank you!
You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed!
Useful video. Thanks!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed!
Missus has the 2022 X3 Lci and yours are the videos she has had the patience to learn more about her car. Your way of explaining the features in these cars is the best I have seen in a while. good job man. subscribed. one question tho. what are activation points and what do you use them for??
Thanks so much for the positive feedback, we really appreciate that, and are glad you're finding the videos helpful! Activation points (for the panorama view camera) are set GPS locations at which the panorama camera will automatically activate and display itself on the screen. For example, if your driveway leads onto a busy road and you frequently back out of it, you can set the end of your driveway as an activation point. This way, every time you go to back out of your driveway, the panorama camera will active to make backing out a bit easier and less dangerous. Hope that helps, let us know if you have more questions.
Lots to learn
Definitely, but worth it to put the learning time in to take advantage of the tech.
Working at a bmw store also I love the 3D parking it’s idiot proof it’s ez to park and u park with confidence when u have 3D parking it’s a must for all bmw build I would say
Agreed, it's a great feature to have!
Thanks for the great video. Does i4 Grand coupe have all the options you mentioned to add?
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed. Yes! i4 has the parking assistance package available.
Ronny, very nice job, we just ordered our 2023 X6 with this package. I have a question, so it automatically brakes when backing up, will it also brake when driving forward? Thanks again Ronny.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video and congrats on your X6 order! Yes, it will when going slowly in a parking lot with PDC active.
Good explanations, thanks. I just bought (actually leased my previous two cars) my 3rd BMW with the Parking Assistance Package and never use them, although I always thought they would be useful for parallel parking in the city. My challenge, especially for my wife, is parking in my tight garage with brick pillars. I have to collapse my mirrors and then I might have 2 inches on either side. Do you think the Backup Assistant would work getting out of my garage with collapsed side mirrors? I looked at the Genesis remote control feature and that was really slick.
You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, backup assistant should be able to back out of your garage without a problem. It should work even with the mirrors folded in.
@BMW of Morristown Works great with mirrors folded in. On a side note I am pissed there is no button in the tailgate to fold the 2nd row seats.
crazy how people might want parking assistance but no active cruise control
weird how the early g20’s you had to get the executive package to get 3d w/ surround glad they added it to the drive assistance package
They switch options around all the time, in that case for the better! It’s a great feature to have.
Thank you
You're welcome!
How do I delete my recorded back up assistant to make a new one ?
Do you need the full parking assistance plus package to get the self parking features or is that available with the standard park assist?
Yes, you need the full parking assistance package.
I have a 24 440 with all the driver assist stuff or at least what BMW put in the 440. It sort of funny to highlight self-parking in 2024. Lexus, I think, introduced that in 2010. I have to say that of the 2 options the driver assist actually is worth the $700. Rim rash is expensive and the 3d really does help with positioning. The highway driver distress system is another issue!
Even if the feature has been around for almost 15 years, from experience, most new owners are totally unfamiliar with it. That's why we wanted to highlight it :)
does parking assist work with manual transmission g82 m4
It does indeed, pedal work is up to you but the car will steer.
We do have 2023 X5 45e with Parking Assistance Package the car braking automatically when backing , but not going forward . Is there another setting somewhere we need to activate ? We mark everything ON in parking assistance setting, but still not work. Any idea ? THX
The automatic braking is only intended to work when going in reverse. As long as it is working in that instance, it sounds like everything is working as it should.
Hi, what is the difference between active park distance control vs just park distance control? Active it monitors and breaks the car for you as suppose just beeps to warn u the distance? Looks like park distance control comes standard..... I'm looking at it from X3 standpoint.
I assume you want to know the difference between park distance control and parking assistance package? PDC is just the parking sensors and a backup camera; the parking assistance package includes front and side cameras, the self-parking system, and the 3d view.
Does the recording feature work only when the car is on? Like if the car is parked and someone hits you, does that trigger a recording? Likewise if someone dings your door (I assume this wouldn’t be enough force to initiate the trigger)?
Good question
Drive recorder only works when the car is in drive-ready state i.e. when the ignition is on.
Does it record all the time or only 20 secs before and after a trigger? I opted in (don’t have new car yet) but was looking for a continuous record?
It's always recording, its just up to you to tell the system to save what its recording.
Any chance this can be retrofitted on a new 2024 m440i xdrive convertible? I see there is one from Bimmer-Tech that looks like it’s OEM.
From BMW, no it is not available or possible. There's an aftermarket solution for everything though if you have the time and budget for it.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 I saw one Bimmer Tech, however, I don’t want to void my warranty and I want to make sure I can get programming for it.
Can it only park next to another car? It can’t detect a space in an empty lot of away from other cars?
It goes by the lines painted on the ground, so it can park in an empty lot as long as there are clearly painted lines.
why was the bmw's display flashing red during parts of the video
At certain points when the system wants your attention, it will flash either yellow or red.
I want it to record the whole time just like a dash cam. One time the lady ran the red light and hit me. The dash cam is what save me. The recording feature on x5 is useless. It only record when there's an accident. The self parking seems like a prototype, sometimes it work and sometimes it doesn't. Useless feature added to make a sell...
Not true! It is recording all the time, just like a dash cam. You can either manually save recordings by holding the camera button, or it will save automatically in the event of an accident.
@@bmwofmorristown9038 nope it doesn't record all the time.
Ronny, are you saying if I have some event happen (not an accident) and I want to save a recording of it, I just hit and hold the camera button and the previous 20 seconds will be saved in my recordings file?
@@bmwofmorristown9038 you obviously never own an x5 bmw 🙄. I hope to God that when someone hit you it will start recording before and after. It failed to do it for me. Why not record all the time, dash cam on ebay I got for $20 record when I start the car. Ridiculous!!
The self parking barely works. Only works when there's car on the left or right.
@@skeeterman7144 Yes, that's correct.
Checked on not off.
Fair enough
bmw ben shapiro
absolutely useless feature , never used it. takes way longer than we can do on our own
If you're good at parking, agreed, it is useless and not as good as a driver who is quick and accurate when parking. However, as we know from a quick trip to any large parking lot, many people are not so gifted. For those folks, this can be a nice feature to have.
