Mark-UK Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 The lane assist image is subtlety different from the normal image. No Lane Assist 聽 Lane Assist active 聽 So if yours is like the bottom image you have lane assist and the car needs to go back as the wrong stalk has been fitted. The little icon also changes colour as you drive, grey not available, green as you drive centre of lane, amber as you wander in lane, you would feel a slight pull as it corrects your position too. 聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waggy Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 But I think the bottom image only appears once lane assist has been activated, so not much help if deciding whether you have it or not? If you had lane assist you would either have a button on the left hand stalk or for earlier models a button with the lane assist symbol on it?
