Hi Guys, a really general question. I'm sure I'm missing something so please forgive my stupiddity in advance.

As subject line, I have an orignal M2 with just 16k miles on it. I love the car, it's just fun and sounds amazing. I never considered the M2C because of that horrendous back end and it's 'muffled' sound in comparison to the original M2.

Anyway, my question. The car has the rear parking camera and sensors, but there appears to be no way that I can switch off the reverse alarm if I remain idling for instance. The only way to silence this alarm apparently is to switch off the car, which I often dont want to do. OR move the car slightly forward so that the sensors don't keep it in alarm. And this option might not be wise, for instance if parking in a designated box. SURELY there's a way just to turn this alarm off without disabling the whole system?

Any thoughts?

Unless you have front parking sensors, then no
You'll need to turn off car to stop it beeping
