Mine is a early build MY17 and Auto. So hopefully we can get some other responses to tell if certain build dates or M6/A8 issue.

It's a bit hard to tell from this angle and light, if there is enough clearance.

I should get one of those, do you have a picture of the camera view with better angle and lighting maybe? My car didn't give me any CEL yet but it did for the other owner

Hmm. Same with the other 2016 or 17? I am having hard time understanding the clearance on above picture
