PDC Problems?

Has anyone experienced problems with their PDC? My still shows the visual PDC, but the "beeping" has stopped. Is there a setting I am overlooking? I ensured the mute is off, etc... Appreciate any input.

Try turning the volume knob while the PDC is supposed to be beeping, or the steering wheel volume control

i'm pretty sure it's adjustable. so is the iDrive lady's voice. i'm not sure about completely disabling it though. whenever i turn the radio off, the PDC still beeps.

Mine its not adjustable (European Spec) not even with programing in the dealer(I've asked...).
The only way to mute PDC is pressing the button for the front PDC.

is there any way to change the sensitivity of the PDC? so it goes constant at 6 inches?
as for the volume ..i dont know if there is a way to mute/adjust the volume of the beeping.
