Default Camera in the rear view mirror?

So today while filling up I noticed that there is a forward-facing camera embedded in my rear-view mirror. I don't have the advanced PCS system but do have the regular PCS/dynamic cruise. Is this camera related to this system?

Are you talking about the high beam sensor? If your high beams are on and it detects an incoming car, it turns them off until it passes.

I had no idea we had such a feature! I'll have to test it out.

I think what you're seeing is the ambient light sensor for the auto-dimming rear view mirror.

I don't think that 2011 460's had auto dimming high-beams as an option.
