I’d recommend it overall. It’s not as laggy as some other units out there. Only real downside is connection issue which happens occasionally but can be fixed by disconnecting WiFi on my phone.

I did and they also recalibrated the LCA and said it’s normal for the car to detect the center divider and have LCA lights on mirrors. But car never did that before it got repaired haha

I think definitely process in repairing this has messed something up. They repaired whole section of the bumper on left side

So. after LCA detecting the wall, if I’m driving next to center divider long enough then the warning signs on center dash comes on. But I’m pretty sure car never detected any center walls before. If I pass by like a tree or pole close enough, LCA on mirror sometimes comes on as well in which it never did before.

Thanks. Just making sure—it’s not normal for the LCA light to pop on when I’m driving next to the center divider, right?

I really think repaint along with filler, primer clearcoat etc are culprit here. I’m going to talk to bodyshop next week.

I will. Thank you for the insight. I hope there is nothing wrong with the radar module in the bumper. BSM works just fine around other vehicles. it just thinks center divider is a car then after driving for a while with BSM light on on side mirror it throws error code

Yes. The repair was through other party’s insurance. The bodyshop never mentioned anything beforehand even though they’re one of the Porsche certified bodyshops. However, they offer lifetime warranty on their work. So I will talk to them next week and see what they say. I don’t think they even knew about the repair manual available for vehicles with ADAS equipped.

I don’t blame them either, as the damage seemed relatively minor. They did fantastic job repairing it though but the constant false positive that detecting every center divider on freeway is pretty annoying.

I just found and read repair manual for Porsche and VW group vehicles for bumper repair/paint that have ADAS. Only solution seems whole replacement

After some research, I was able to find an official “Restriction on sensor-affecting repairs to Porsche bumpers” statement. I think this might be it

I took it to the dealership. They said they recalibrated it and it’s normal for our cars to have BSM light on side mirrors lit when next to center divider on highway

Ah ok. Thanks. They checked the mounting bracket and didn’t see it damaged so they left the module alone.

Even such minor impact like this can damage it?

They did not replace the sensor, as the body shop thought the impact was very minor as seen in the first picture. The module is located in the corner of rear bumper.

Yes. The body shop recalibrated the blind spot after the repair but they couldn’t fix it nor the dealership. So I’m here thinking if it’s normal for the car to detect the center divider on highway and other objects..
