Hmm, I guess adaptive cruise user demographic doesn't need fuzz busters?

Default OMG, so annoying!

I figured my 4 hour drive to LA would be a good time to use the V1 in my new A4, with plans to have it hardwired sometime soon when I have a chance. I can definitely confirm that there is some kind of active radar in the car constantly setting off the K Band. I tried turning Side Assist off with the push button on the A pillar, but it did not help. This must mean that the button only turns off the visual notification and not the entire Side Assist system. I'm definitely going to have to find a solution for this ASAP.
