Adding Driver Assistance Plus Possible?
I have a 2018 540xi with Park Assist Plus. Is it possible to have the dealership add Driver Assist Plus? I figure with the Park Assist Plus already installed the censors are already in place, but didn't know if it was feasible. Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken Driving Assistances includes ACC which requires the large raider sensor in the front bottom which isn't part of Parking Assist. I have Driving Assist and not Parking Assist so different sensors otherwise I would add Parking Assist (sensors only).

I do not believe there is a way to retrofit this. I would call BimmerTech and see what they offer. I know they sell the remote control parking retrofit, so they might have a solution for you.

The Driver Assist was included as standard equip for MY 19 so I was referring to the Plus only. Sorry

I read a post about someone who went over a curb and ripped away his bumper. Said it cost insurance $10k to fix because of all the sensors and cameras that had to be readjusted besides the repair of the bumper.

I was turning left onto a two lane road and he was going against traffic in the center turn and t-boned me. Because he was in pursuit, they're trying to pin it on me for a failure to yield right of way to an emergency vehicle. Oh, and he was traveling over 2 1/2 times the speed limit. We'll find out next Friday. |

I have the park assist plus which I assumed has most of the sensors needed for driver assist plus, but I'm gathering it does not. I have regular driver assist so the sensors that are there can definitely tell where the lines are on the road.

Driver assist plus contains the active drive assistant which prevents your car from changing lanes without a turn signal among other things. It's more than just sensors.
