Thanks for this - I've checked for bugs (of the flying variety) - none there
Not quite sure what you mean by "vibration of the senders"
I guess if it is external r/f noise it is beyond my control - but I wouldn't have thought that it would be a problem all over the distances I have covered over the last two weeks

Called the dealer - they seemed baffled - not sure it is something they have run into before. They said they would have to plug it in to see if any fault codes had been registered - loathed to find the time to go in - certainly it has not logged any malfunctions in the display in the dashboard

Anyone else had a similar problem with their distronic?

Dirty senders, clean 'em up, the CL has the weird looking plastic insert in the grille and bugs.... yes bugs will cause 'em to freak out.
Vibration of the senders, I have no idea what solution they came up with on that one. Maybe the went to a mount like the old 119 air filter housings.
Rain, see bugs
Certian types of radar and other r/f type noise causing radar echo's. Same thing that causes shadows and false positives on weather doppler.
