This past weekend I tried using my foot right on the corner and bingo, it worked. Bottom line is that the diffuser definitely messes with the function but I think with a lot of experimenting there will still be a way to use it. I'm getting close!
If you look up the m performance instructions there is mention of having to code it when you add the carbon fiber rear diffuser. I imagine it ups the sensitivity since you are adding a layer that wasn't otherwise there prior. If your dealer installed it, they should have known to do so or you can show them. I am guessing this applies to even aftermarket and a reason I am thinking of avoidint it as I have no idea how to do code that specific item on my own.
