Radar Sensor Blocked

So I'm hammering down the A1(M) last night and decided to set my ACC at 70mph and relax - up pops an orange warning triangle and a message "Radar Sensor Blocked" then disappears after about 5 secs. So. Pressed set again and ACC engages, warning light didn't return.

Anyone had this before?

Car is a 13MY A/B SDV6

could it have been that you were going through a Police radar speed trap ? dunno if that sort of thing interferes with our radars ??  RR Sport Supercharged Vesuvius Orange 4.2 V8 First edition

don't know for sure, but people with automatic gate opener radars fitted to vehicles also interfered with speed guns, and so people fitted one even though they didn't have the auto gates !  RR Sport Supercharged Vesuvius Orange 4.2 V8 First edition
