K-40 And Audi S4

Hey Guys..
I had a K-40 calibre installed in my clients 2010 S4 car.Its the ftand rear with diffusers.The rear keeps going off constantly,and its very sensitive.Called K-40 and they said since the car has the lane changer system that its interfearing with the radar...Is this B.S.? Need help on how to fix this problem(its the rear radar thats the problem..not the ft,or diffusers)

Its very possible that the car has the lane change assist feature. You may have to use an Audi 5051 computer to turn the sensors off, or modify the location of the K-40

Not BS - this has been reported with several Audi owners. The sensors emit K-band themselves

Your K40 installer should have known this. We were having issues with Distronic Plus equipped cars (MB) and K40. Not sure when or where but a work around was figured out.
