PDC on Navigation Screen

Can anyone confirm if on the 1series the Park Distance Control (PDC) shows up on the i-drive screen as in the following youtube video?

I would say you will get a front and back display if you opted for F/R PDC. Don't see why not....

I'm pretty sure it's back bumper only for USA models. It does work very well with the iDrive, though.

I have front and rear PDC on my 120d and the display does indeed show the front and the rear. Also the audio comes out of the appropriate speakers (ie. obstruction at the left rear - beeps come from the left rear speaker). Also the frequency of the tone (the actual 'note') is different for front and rear so you can tell the difference
