Parking Sensors and Towing

I’d be grateful if someone could confirm how my rear parking sensors should behave when reversing with a trailer. It’s an adblue HSE Lux.

Thanks in advance Thumbs Up

I believe they are disabled on the D5, would assume the 4 is the same.

They were on my 2 D3s but I’ve just had a Service guy swearing blind they don’t on mine and there are no errors showing Laughing He consulted with a technician who said my car has to be manually disabled. Before I make a real fuss I need to make sure my facts are right though.

It’s quite interesting I also questioned that my TPMS displays the tyre pressures as zero, I have been told it only tells me of a drop in pressure not the actual pressure. Whilst looking in the manual I decided to look at this and it seems they are wrong again it should be displaying the value, what else haven’t they done properly 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Mine don’t, have to change the settings in the central screen, might be that I’ve LED lighting so the draw is not enough for electrics to detect they are plugged in.

That’s really odd my screen shows the pressure in psi for each tyre 34 etc, sound like somethings not configured correctly.

The parking sensors disable if genuine LR towing electrics are fitted AND correctly configured in the CCF.

Have all the above, they don’t.
Three visits to the dealer, nothing wrong, correctly fitted and enabled.

If they are, why is there the facility in the central screen to turn them off for towing where the settings for the Reversing Guide Lines and Warning Bars for the sensors. Question
