Automatic PDC
Just picked up a 2014 X5 for my wife.... It has an Auto PDC function that comes on automatically when it senses you are too close to something.
I've looked in the menus but can't find anything.... Certainly this function can be activated on our cars? Is this available on the 2014's with the new Idrive? |

PDC and Cameras on the new X5 are the latest and greatest BMW has at the moment.... I think it even has a front panoramic camera... so highly possible this is a feature currently unique to '14 X5s.

But it would get annoying, say if you were in a city at a crosswalk with people close to your car walking by and the auto PDC blaring away. |

So, placed an order for a 35Xdrive, Black Sapphire, Black interior, M Sport w/ 20" wheels, Premium Package, drivers assistance & harmon kardon. basic options but all that she really needs. She has been driving my X5 M for the last year so I needed to get her into something more practical.... it was NOT a fun experience at the dealership... all she kept saying was "how would you feel if I took away YOUR ///M???" FYI BMW did a great job on it. really nice job on the interior. now its finally on par with the 5 & 7. |

We might wait for the 35D, but my wife said she doesn't want an x5 unless it's the x5 M50D. I am at a loss.
