Should the seat belt tighten when you click it in?
Why do I feel my M5 did this....but my M8 does not? Should it automatically tighten once you put it on?

Interesting, I took a spin today and my seat belt tugs after I take off. Wonder why.

You are 100 percent sure you have it? Literally you are the only person who posted here who has it…they would not remove a safety feature due to COVID.

From what I see below I wonder if you say turn off the driver alertness or other function if you turn it off as well??? Dynamic Safety is the BMW ConnectedDrive preventive passenger protection system. The system is activated after the engine is started and the front seat belts are automatically slightly tensioned when the car starts moving. In a critical driving situation such as emergency braking, or if the vehicle demonstrates excessive understeer or oversteer, the front seat belts are pre-tensioned, the side windows and sun roof (if fitted) are closed and the passenger seat backrest is returned to the upright position (if fitted with electric seats). Reduced belt tensioning provides increased driving comfort. If a crash is unavoidable, the system brakes the car, without requiring intervention by the driver, until the vehicle reaches a standstill. This helps reduce the likelihood of a second or subsequent collision, and or reduces the effects thereof - or in the best case scenario could prevent a further collision altogether. The Attentiveness Assistant also recognizes if the driver is displaying signs of increasing inattentiveness or tiredness. This system analyses the steering response and reacts to irregular driving behavior by issuing a message in the Control Display suggesting that the driver should take a break and emitting an acoustic signal.

It does look like for standard features the 8 series does not come with "Dynamic Safety" which is the package for the seat belt hug. Damn now I really want to pay attention when I get home and go for a drive.

I use a seat belt stop tensioner. I hate the pull on my shoulder deal.
Mine do not tighten upon driving away and I'm glad. I don't need a seatbelt babysitter. |

It's weird how/when this feature is implemented. My 2013 f06 did NOT have this feature...but my 2014 F15 & 2015 F06 does. The seat belt will do a little hug then release tension as you start to drive off.
It's called the: Reversible electromotive automatic reel, left and right.

My 2020 M850i tightens the seatbelt once moving (5 to 8MPH). Oddly the wife's new X5 LCI does it immediately when either selecting reverse or drive with the transmission.

I can confirm the seatbelt on my UK spec 840 definitely tightens like a boa constrictor if the car thinks it is about to have a collision!!

Yes, forgot about that. Get the frontal collision warning (red car outline pops up in the HUD) and it tightens even more than the "snug" at the initial 5 to 8MPH initial setting.

I use to have this feature on my 7 series but not on the M850GC. The way it worked is as soon as you start driving the seatbelt would tighten.
