When I bought my Citroen C8 last October, the dealer politely declined to fit my trusty Hollywood towbar-mounted bike rack on the grounds that it would make the tow hitch protrude into the reverse sensors' line-of-sight and would confuse the system. This I accepted. The plan was to fit the rack when I needed it and remove it when I didn't.
On Saturday, I had to retrieve my daughter's push-bike from Nottingham, so I fitted the rack. Just as predicted, for the first couple of times in reverse, the system bleeped wildly. Funnily enough, now the system works as it did before. Has it learnt that the bike rack isn't something I'm going to back into?
Is it smarter that your average bear, faulty, French?
Can anyone shed any light?

More importantly Hawkeseye, has it increased the distance at which it turns into a solid beep so you can't reverse your bike rack into anything?
