Model Year 25/26 Lane Assist can be Dangerous

[Steve-Formentor]

Only had the car a few days and already had a bad experience with Lane Assist. I forgot to de-activate it before setting out on a short journey today and, in the attached pic (taken from Google maps as I don't have a dashcam yet) , where the exit is, the car suddenly lurched to the right to take the exit that I didn't want to take. I realise that the road markings there are not good but that is typical in Spain. Heaven knows what the drivers behind me thought as well as the brief panic that washed over me. Definitely going to get this disabled.

www,BeepOff.app launches very very very soon. As your car is equipped with SFD2, lane assist cannot be disabled via coding

I'm a bit old, so can you tell me if you'd need to remember to have your phone in the car in order for BeepOff to function every journey?

Thanks, wasn't aware of that, I'll just have to remember to disable it at the start of every journey. Ridiculous situation.

Once it’s configured, it’s configured. No need to touch it ever again if you don’t want to

Your phone is only needed for reconfiguration

Any idea how much it will be?

Approximately £250-300 including installation & VAT and a 2 year warranty. No subscription costs or anything like that

Got to be worth investigating.

I've been thinking... Pay £300, or turn off Lane Assist every time you drive? Maybe I'll buy petrol with the £300 and wait for a cheaper solution.

It does a lot more than turn off the lane assist, with even more planned for the future

Compatibility – BeepOff

Check if your car is a good match for BeepOff.

Thanks. I'm sure it does more, but having looked at the list, Lane Departure Warning is the only thing that is of interest to me personally.

I installed a Burteq adapter in my 2022 model year. Plugs into the harness below your steering wheel. Keeps driver profile, lane assist setting and start/stop setting between car starts No more fiddling every time I start the car, deffinetley worth it for me.

Just be sure to disconnect/reconnect the battery in one confident go or the car might not want to start without disconnecting and reconnecting the battery again.
