Looking for a little help here. Apologies if this has been asked already, I searched and didn't find anything that addresses my specific questions....
I took my car in because I kept getting front camera and pre collission assist failures and the dealer wanted to complete the installation of 21G01 since maybe that had something to do with my symptoms. Also was going to install the HVBJB recall software but that actually installed at the end of last week via OTA so they were able to skip that apparently.
So, BlueCruise Hands Free works and as far as I can tell, it is identical to ACC + LKA/LC except one big difference. BlueCruise Hands Free (BCHF) tracks down the dead center of the lane but I am no longer able to set my preferred tracking position in the lane like I could do with ACC+LKA/LC.
I tried turning off BCHF in the Sync menu but that also seems to disable Lane Centering. Is there any way to get Lane Centering back without having BCHF enabled? It looks like "Lane Centering with Hands-Free" is combined into one radio button and I can't find a way to turn off Hands-Free while leaving Lane Centering enabled. Here is what I get when I disable that button.
If the answer is "NO", then will I get this feature back when my BCHF trail period expires or will I be stuck with ACC+LKA only. Or to put it another way....is Lane Centering gone when BCHF is gone?
I had no choice but to use BCHF on my 22 mile drive to work because that appears to be the only way that I can get Lane Centering to function. BCHF frequently drops off and reverts to ACC+LKA/LC and then back again. The transition is seamless, but it happens quite often and is very distracting visually. My preference would be to have ACC+LKA/LC with preferred lane tracking vs having to drive down the dead center of the lane with the screen flashing those blue graphics on and off every few miles.
Sometimes it takes a few days for things to settle in after an update. If the preferred tracking in the lane feature starts working with BCHF then I can probably live with it provided I can get used to the driver's screen flashing up those blue screens back and forth throughout my drive.
Right now my screen flashes back and forth between these two views every couple of miles during my commute. It's a bit distracting obviously. I don't think it's a problem with the system. I think it has to do with the condition of the freeway. They have it all torn up around here and the lane markings are a little vague at times.
Any ideas?
