oxygene Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 So after a few annoying warnings I decided to turn off the Driver Monitor System on my 2023 Sport and see how it goes. It stayed off for about 2 weeks straight and then all of a sudden it will now always come on when the car starts. I turn it off and the next start its back on. Anyone else have this issue?

I'm not sure how it stayed off for 2 weeks because everything I've read says it is supposed to be enabled every time you start the car.

m sprank Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 There is no way to permanently disable the system. You are "lucky" it stayed off for 2 weeks. Some owners have stated that if they start the car remotely via Starlink only the system stays off longer. Sometimes the system comes back on while the car is driving, sometimes it is at a restart.

oxygene Posted May 9, 2023 Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 I was mostly using the Starlink remote start during those 2 weeks so maybe that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp1975 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Mine has only stayed off a day or two. I normally turn it off myself on sunny days because I wear fit-over sunglasses over my prescription glasses and the system can’t handle the 2 sets of lens disabling itself with 5 minutes or so. It also can’t handle my wearing a cap in the car as it will again disable itself in a few minutes. So I just usually turn it off right after turning off the stop/start system.
