Just sounds like the inadequate capabilities of the system although I agree it should be better

I’m assuming the system is the same as in the pre LCI 5 series and the same as the video you posted

It certainly has it limitation which I found to be not being able to read poor road markings, taking a turn off on a motorway sometimes instead of keeping on the motorway
Mine was also biased to driving on the right of the lane it seemed.

See what the dealer states, there may be a software update that can be applied but a 2019 model presumably is out of warranty so you’ll probably have to pay for that. The update could take up to a couple of hours to apply potentially depending upon what kit you have on the car

Is the traffic jam part of the system useable aswell as that was n my opinion the better half of the system
I talked to another owner on a Facebook group that was experiencing similar issues but encountered more violent ping ponging in the lanes. He had his dealer update his idrive, recalibrate his lane assist and pretty much reset every system in the car and he said there was probably a 90% improvement in the LKA performance. Going to schedule an appointment with my dealer to see if they can repeat these steps as well. I'm not expecting autonomy by any means, but there's no reason it should struggle to hold the lanes on a completely straight stretch of highway with clearly marked lanes
