 What do you think about the PDC sensors?



Do you like the look of the 4 ultrasonic sensors on the rear bumper for the Part Distance Control?

PDC is for sissies.

It would be nicer if they also have the front PDC............ I know they have front and rear PDC in Euro, not in U.S., why is that???..............

I always thought the distance feedback it gave you was out of whack. When parking, I don't want to know about distances in feet, I want it in inches. I can get the car to within a foot of another car, I want to back up so it am an inch or two away for maximum manouverability.

Maybe in Canadian "farm country" like your profile says you are from. Try parallel parking in West Hollywood (where parking spaces are like gold) on a Saturday night with 8-10 inches to spare front and back, on a hill, with a stick shift. I'll take the 4 dots over scuff marks and scratches (although someone will eventually tap the bumper anyway when they try to park their buick).

I agree. PDC was the only option that I didn't get when I placed my order. To me PDC makes sense if you're driving a bus-sized SUV with limited visibility and you actually might run into the neighbors dog taking a crap behind your car, but in something the size of a 3-Series if I can't get my car within the foot or so the PDC tops out at I don't need to be driving it.
