Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented PDC parking sensor is dedicated for installation in the front and rear bumper zones, allowing for full functionality of the parking assistance system in BMW F10 LCI and F11 models. The component works with the vehicle's factory installation, ensuring proper obstacle detection and signal transmission to the control unit and the cabin interface.

Placement on the vehicle includes both the front and rear, which allows the sensor to be used as a replacement for a damaged part in any position within the bumper, in accordance with the factory configuration of a specific vehicle.

Color and visual fit

The factory color Melbourne Red Metallic - A75 allows for an aesthetic match of the sensor to bodywork painted in the same shade. As a result, after installation, the component does not stand out from the other bumper parts, which is particularly important for post-accident repairs and maintaining the vehicle's original appearance.

The metallic paint ensures consistency with the BMW design line, and the proper preparation of the sensor surface for factory painting promotes coating durability and reduces the risk of discoloration during use.

Technical characteristics and integration with the PDC system

The sensor belongs to the group of components responsible for measuring the distance to obstacles in the PDC system, using ultrasonic signals to continuously monitor the vehicle's surroundings. The design is adapted to BMW installation requirements, which facilitates mounting in original bumper sockets and connection to the electrical harness without the need for modifications.

The component has an assigned OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which allows for unambiguous identification in BMW catalogs and matching to a specific vehicle configuration. Thanks to this, the sensor can be used as a suitable replacement within the same family of PDC components.

Condition and practical application

The sensor is offered as a used part, which allows for an economical repair of the parking system while maintaining the original BMW specification. This type of solution is particularly beneficial for local damage to individual sensors when the remaining system components remain functional.

Choosing an original parking sensor from disassembly promotes compatibility with the vehicle's factory software and minimizes the risk of communication errors in the PDC system bus, which are typical for low-quality replacements.
