Emergency braking...
Thrasher:
For the first time since I bought Bagheera I had to REALLY REALLY stop quickly because some twonk drove straight out in front of me without looking. I had about 1.5 car lengths to stop in, and I was doing 30....
Suffice is to say I missed t-boning him by about 2 inches ... what amazed me was the fact the vehicle knew it was in a hard braking situation, engaged EBA (emergency brake assist), turned off the stereo, and disengaged the bluetooth (I wasn't using it, but it comes up on the dash). Very very spooky!
The idiot of course just looked a bit shocked and then continued *WITHOUT* looking again!!!
muddyjames:
so turning off blue tooth and the radio helps you stop faster in which way? I am confused here but sounds clever
3laner:
probably to help you concentrate in braking in a straight line or something, interesting feature though!

My old 90 has EBA, but I thought it was Emergency Bump Assist. It turns the wireless off every time we go over one. It is obviously slightly more advanced than your system, as if its only a small bump it only turns off the drivers side speaker, whereas if it a proper spine jolter it shuts down the whole thing. :grin:
lee celtic:

but I think mines a loose wire :-k
:lol: :lol:every time I press the loud pedal the cd skips, then cruse and it's ok :-k
