2018 M2 LCI Fullscreen Backup Camera

I searched, but couldn’t find this anywhere. I just noticed that my camera isn’t full screen, but could have sworn it was. I don’t have the Executive Package on my 2018 M2 LCI. I think that I tried every option on the screen and toggling the iDrive Controller in seemingly every which way while my car was in reverse. Can LCI folks remind me if the cam is fullscreen or clipped like I photographed? Thanks.

It is chopped on mine with Executive package. The left side of the screen shows the rear sensors on a pencil drawn car (for lack of a better name for their poor car image).

Talked to the genius today at my BMW dealer. He stated that if you have the executive package you can only get the split screen image. Without the executive package you can get a full screen.

He couldn’t show me how to get the full screen since my car and the 3 M2s he has in stock all have executive packages.

That seems a bit odd. I wonder if it can be coded back to full screen with BimmerCode or similar?

Thanks, man. I appreciate the feedback. Makes sense since the PDC graphic has to show with the Executive Package. But since I don’t have the package, I wonder why mine won’t revert back to full screen.

I would talk to a genius at your BMW dealer.

Not quite sure what is happening. But mine is fine at night. The backup lights help illuminate the picture for the camera.
