Hi All. I don't know if anyone has experience of this. Coming from a Range Rover I had the ability to hold the parking sensor but down for about five seconds and it would show a light all the time, this meant that if you were driving at low speed I think below 5 mph the parking sensors would automatically activate, handy around tight roads, car parks, drive etc. Does anyone know if you can do this on the new Discovery....Thanks

Hi.

For the first few days I was constantly pressing and turning on the parking sensor button at low speeds going forwards but now I've set them to come on automatically at low speeds. Can't remember exactly how I did it, but I'm sure I'd was through a menu on the dash. Maybe drivers aids?

It works well. Yes, great for multi-storeys.

Hi again. Just checked this morning and the setting doesn't seem to be accessed through the steering wheel. When the parking sensors are on and the display is on you I should see a setting button (a little cog). When clicked on one of the settings is for automatic sensors.

Thank you! Having to turn it on every time was irritating me.
