Parking sensors too sensitive?

[jm89]

Does anyone else find the sensors on the auris a bit too sensitive? I found if i get behind another car and there is alot of exhaust fumes coming out of that car the front sensers start beeping. Any one else find this? or maybe my sensors are actually buggered...

Actually i was wondering about that too, mine do that aswell but they are always too sensitive

Yes, mine are very sensitive. First car I’ve had with parking sensors (front and rear). 

I have a 2016 Auris Excel hybrid hatchback.

In the Toyota Touch 2 with Go head unit, if you go into the setup / settings, you can decrease the front and rear parking sensors sensitivity (sonar distance) from far to near. 
 

Changing this setting improved things considerably. Hope this helps.
