Head unit takes a couple of seconds to boot up following ignition switch on, takes another second or so from engaging reverse to the camera coming on but both camera and headunit take the reverse feed from the reverse light output on the rear SAM, which takes its instruction from the shifter module...

A switch on the gearbox is much more direct

Is that only shortly after starting the car, or all the time?  Mine is instant once the Infotainment has booted, but has the delay if it hasn't.  Which is annoying, as the exact length of time it takes the Infotainment to boot is how long it takes me to reverse off the drive - which often needs 2 reversing attempts due to lover boy's parking opposite...

I'd have to take more notice. It still takes time for me to remember the camera is there to use ...  I just notice it's slow when I use it like you to reverse off my drive

I have just discovered these sensor kits are not all identical. The displays all look similar, but the display unit on this car has a switch on the beeper with three positions, left off, right on, and central. Set centrally, it beeps when near, but not when bulb testing. I'll settle for that.
