Thank you for the answers , now have a problem with the sos light keep coming on and going offIt’s the collision warning sensor calibrating. It’s perfectly normal.
If it is connected to front assist water in the sensor could get dislodged by vibration or movement. The Arona's front assist can throw a warning if the car is parked tilting. My theory water then moves to shield the radar signal. Noticed that on the Arona. Has happened a few time now.I found the collision warning light pops up on some cars after you’ve hit a pothole or gone over a bump a bit too quick. Or even after closing a door too harshly. Not sure if the SOS light is due to lack of signal or whether it’s linked to the collision light popping on.
Nice one, I have been searching for this one as i am noticing it every so often as I start the car.The white icon is calibration:

I often have this icon facing a metal fence or mesh. It goes out when I retract.
Yellow means the system works with limitation.
There is a different (yellow) icon and a specific pop up message when the radar is impaired.I'd still be a bit careful when you see the message. The old school platform message was impaired sensor which you'd get in a rain storm / heavy spray. If charging down a motorway means you can't count on front assist to stop you hitting something. At that point ACC would be compromised.
The metal fence will be the radar bounce back is outside of parameters like heavy rain, spray etc and attempted calibration. I see two example above the white and the yellow referred too.
Seems most of these cars are impaired quite a bit . The non MQB Evo ones remain fairly solid.There is a different (yellow) icon and a specific pop up message when the radar is impaired.
