A quick how-to video and practical demonstration on the new parking assistance package on the 2023 iX featuring parking assistant professional with recorded path parking, automatic parking, and remote control parking via the MyBMW app. This new version of the parking assistance package takes convenience and technology to the next level and is available on all vehicles featuring iDrive8 and Digital Key Plus (see vehicle eligibility on note #1).

A few notes:
1. Vehicles eligible for this version of the parking assistance package with parking assistant professional: X5 LCI, X6 LCI, X7 LCI, i7, 7 Series, iX.
2. NOT ALL iDrive8 vehicles come with Parking Assistant Professional which adds recorded path parking and remote control parking via the myBMW app which requires Digital Key Plus (2, 3, 4, and i4). The X3, X4, and 5 series are unavailable with Parking Assistant Professional due to the lack of iDrive8 and/or Digital Key Plus.
3. An Electronic Subscriber Agreement or ESA is required for remote control parking via the myBMW app and also requires the activation of Digital Key Plus.
4. Recorded Path Parking will not activate if the road gradient is too steep as I found out on my driveway.
5. In order for the Recorded Path to be utilized and saved, you must drive or record at least 21 feet of maneuvering.
6. The automatic parking function embedded in the new parking assistant professional can recognize painted parking lines and can park between the lines if there are 2 empty perpendicular parking spots next to each other. Prior versions of the automated parking function recognized only objects and the space between 2 objects (cars) and would park in between the 2 vehicles and not take into account the painted lines.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope to see you soon at our store!
