Ok so when I had a loan disco4 it had the same reversing image as my 5.0sc except when I turned the wheel in reverse the lines bent round to show where the wheels would be. On my car the lines stay straight - is that normal / as it should be for my model?

Having just read that back its not very clear but I am referring to the image superimposed on the rear view cam screen. "On first name terms with my local Dealer......now."

The guy who did the handover said the lines curved to show the path of the car with steering applied. However, mine stay straight…must confess, I haven't yet read the owner's manual entirely so could it be a setting?

Think you have to have the camera pack to make them bend. I think. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Yes, you need vision assist for the rear view camera lines to move & to show the collision graphic at the bottom...

The camera with the fixed lines is the camera that fails a lot (reversing the image)

Shame that can't be retro fitted as that was one feature I really liked in the loan car I had. "On first name terms with my local Dealer......now."

Do i read your profile correctly? You have an AB Black Edition? And it does not have vision assist?

Not the black edition but in black. "On first name terms with my local Dealer......now."

I have vision assist and the lines bend on mine. I don't have any option for tow assist in the cameras menu though. Can I turn that on with IIDtool or is it a hardware thing ? Current Vehicles :

So I was reading something similar to this on the Disco forum as my D4 with the surround cameras has the bendy lines and I thought that you could have that with the full camera set up, however I was corrected that some single camera systems did have bendy lines too. Now wondering if we can enable this on our 2011 VSE? What does the vision assist include that the standard maybe doesn’t. I haven’t gone into the CCF as my GAP is tied to the Disco for full access. 2011 Disco 4

Um no sir…

The bendy lines are controlled through the VA control unit! The rear camera has 4 wires as a fixed unit and a “bendy lines� camera has many more much like an old fashioned CD multiplayer lead…

So, I’m guessing it would be a load of work and cost to retrofit the camera and tailgate loom! Then you would need an ECU of some sorts… Then you may as well go the whole hog and fit all the cameras and looms! Oh and don’t forget the wing mirrors! They’ll both need to be changed along with the door looms…

Thanks Craig,
I was just hoping it may be the same set up as the Disco, oh well, I will just be happy the camera still works! 2011 Disco 4
