Blind spot sensitivitiy adjust ?
New C300 Wagon owner here, did a search but didn't find what I am looking for....
Is there anyway to turn-down the sensitivity of the Blind spot assist ? It beeps when there is clearly enough space for a lane change....really annoying....

I've experienced this and it can be annoying. For example, you'll have a car moving past you on your left. The red triangle is lit as the car goes by. Once the other car is past, and the red triangle goes out, you use the turn signal but get beeping and a new flashing red triangle when the path is actually clear. This can falsely cause a moment of panic making you think you're going to change lanes into a car that is not there. You have to wait a little longer before signaling to keep this from happening. I have not had this occur with other cars I've driven with blind spot monitoring. Unfortunately, I don't think there is any way for the owner to modify this.
