Application and function in the PDC system

The PDC parking sensor is responsible for precisely detecting obstacles in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle, assisting the driver when maneuvering in tight parking lots, garages, or during parallel parking. This component works with the factory BMW electronics, generating acoustic and visual signals that help reduce the risk of damage to bumpers and bodywork components.

The presented sensor is adapted for installation in both the front and rear zones of the vehicle, which allows it to be used as a replacement in various positions of the factory PDC system. This makes it possible to effectively restore the full functionality of the parking assistance system without the need for installation modifications.

Imperial Blue Metallic - A89 color matching

The Imperial Blue Metallic - A89 color has been developed to be consistent with the original BMW paint palette, which allows for maintaining a uniform bumper appearance after replacing the sensor. Proper color matching reduces the need for additional painting and facilitates installation in vehicles factory-equipped with this shade.

Proper selection of the sensor color is not only important for aesthetic reasons but also for practical ones – a component in the correct shade integrates better with the bumper surface, without disrupting the body lines or distracting from other stylistic details of the car.

Benefits of using an original BMW sensor

Using an original PDC sensor in the BMW 5 Series F10 LCI / F11 ensures:

• preservation of the factory operating characteristics of the parking system,
• proper cooperation with the existing electrical harness and control modules,
• correct dimensional fit for the mounting socket in the bumper,
• visual consistency with the body paint in the Imperial Blue Metallic - A89 shade.

Thanks to this, replacing a damaged element with an original sensor allows you to restore maneuvering comfort and safety during parking, without compromising on build quality and integration with the vehicle.

Condition, verification, and selection of the correct element

The offered parking sensor is a used part, which provides a cost-effective solution while maintaining compatibility with the factory BMW system. Before installation, it is recommended to verify compatibility with the specific vehicle configuration, particularly regarding the body version and the PDC system used.
