Issue with LDA in TSS 3.0

Sounds like it is the lesser lane keeping system that gives alerts and nudges when approaching a line, or what it think is a line. In the Subaru, that is just on by default, and requires going into a settings menu to turn off.

 

Okay, I was thinking your problem was LTA, but I read closer and realized you were correct about it being LDA. You said it was happening with DRCC off, and that's LDA(LTA only works with DRCC on).

I've noticed problems with LTA and snow/ice on the lines, but I expected that. I've been using the steering wheel button to toggle LTA depending on road conditions.

Any problems with LDA have been rare enough that I haven't felt the need to disable it yet. But you are correct that it can only be disabled through the menu system. If your roads are bad enough that you're getting repeated unwanted steering inputs from LDA, I would disable it until conditions improve or spring arrives, whichever comes first.

Regardless, disabling LDA only disables that TSS subsystem; it doesn't disable any of the other safety systems. There could be some sensitivity options with LDA that might help, but you'll have to dig into the menu and test any out to see.




LDA: Lane Departure Alert - uses a camera to watch lane lines; if you are about to cross the line, you receive a buzzer warning and a moderate-strength steering adjustment; temporarily paused when the turn signal is activated; activates at 50kph and above; enable/disable through MFD menus

LTA: Lane Tracing Assist - uses cameras to keep you centered in the lane when DRCC(cruise control) is operating; gentle steering adjustments; needs user input every 15sec or warnings sound; enable/disable toggled by steering wheel button

 

The button turns on/off LTA (with DRCC), not LDA. To turn on/off LDA, you need to go to the vehicle settings on the meter gauge.
