Also, in the US we only have rear PDC but the rear indicator is visual in iDrive.

Are you referring to a channel on Sirius that displays (audio and text) traffic conditions? The problem with getting all the traffic updates is I have to figure out my own route (if all accidents are reported). In a strange city that’s very difficult to do.

I was referring to the traffic updates received by the nav and automatically calculating alternative directions around accidents and bad traffic. Acura is the only manufacturer I know of with that feature in the US.
