Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented parking sensor belongs to the Parking sensors category and works with the factory PDC system in BMW F-series cars. The component is designed for installation in the rear of the vehicle, where it is responsible for measuring the distance from obstacles while reversing and transmitting signals to the control unit and the acoustic or visual system.

Its placement in the rear section of the body allows for:

• more precise maneuvering in tight parking spaces,
• reducing the risk of damage to the bumper and body components,
• increasing the comfort of daily vehicle operation in urban traffic.

Color and visual fit

The sensor is finished in Estoril Blau Metallic - B45, which allows for an aesthetic match with factory-painted BMW bumpers in this shade. As a result, the component does not stand out visually from the bumper surface, and the entire assembly maintains a consistent, clean appearance.

Such color matching reduces the need for additional painting and allows for faster, more predictable component replacement in service conditions.

Technical characteristics and integration with the PDC system

As a component of the PDC system, the sensor works with the factory BMW electrical installation, ensuring proper communication with the control module. The design is prepared for installation in the original bumper socket, which facilitates service and reduces the time required for replacement.

Key advantages of this solution include:

• maintaining the factory logic of the parking assistance system,
• possibility of direct installation in the designated spot in the rear bumper,
• compatibility with the vehicle's wiring without the need for modifications.

Condition of the component and practical application

The offered sensor is a used part, which allows for an economical repair of the PDC system while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. This solution is particularly beneficial for spot repairs after minor parking collisions or the failure of a single sensor.

Replacing a damaged component with a functional sensor of this type allows for restoring the full functionality of the parking system without the need to interfere with other system components.

Part selection and expert support

To correctly select a sensor for a specific vehicle configuration, it is worth paying attention to the manufacturer's markings and compatibility with the body version and PDC system. Both data from the rating plate and information from the vehicle's service documentation can be helpful.
