Recently purchased a new GLS 450 with the self parking pkg. I am frustrated in that I can't get it to consistently recognize perfect perpendicular parking spots. On those rare occasions that it does properly detect the spot, it parks well. I've tried different methods of approaching the spaces: very closely passing them, passing them at a moderate distance; always, very slowly. All to no avail.
Is there a hidden trick to get the car to recognize the spots, or is it a malfunction. FYI, I do have the blue "P" always visible when traveling below 20mph. It's just that the left or right arrows rarely pop up.
