Pre-sense...

I can't believe the number of false activation people are experiencing with Pre Sense. PS has literally saved me from nothing so far, and 100% annoyance. One of these days I'll disconnect the rear radar and front radar sensors just to get rid of it, even if it means I lose ACC and side assist.

I'm reading through this thread and seeing all the information about presence alerts. I get the alert all the time but my car NEVER applies the brakes. I hear the chime and see the warning symbol, but get no reaction from the car otherwise.
FYI it's a 2018 S5 SB with DAP.

Like many innovative automations in our society, the system that supposedly replace or help human at first is not a 100%. The logic is that if it can save one accident, then that 100 false alarm is worth while.

That is an interesting set of logic. In that case, we may as well limit maximum speed to 5 mph to prevent nearly all fatal accidents.

What you are getting is a warning, I get a lot of those too, mostly false alarms. If you continue on that course, it will apply the brakes for you.

Wondering if those 100 false alarms just might cause one (or more) accidents, rendering another Nanny Control useless.

Even after the self driving Tesla killed a woman, the regulators still have not given up on the self driving car concept. Its the sacrifice of the few for the greater good cause. As far as shutting off safety systems, forget about, Audi would be setting themself up for a lawsuit.

I’m from Canada and i didn’t order DAP but the car has pre sense. It will have the rear cross warning which will automatically brake hard for you and also as i experienced it will pull the seat belt hard (according to a poster above) when you are close to being rear ended. I have a technik so I’m not sure if its excluded in the progressive.
