Application and vehicle function

The presented PDC sensor is designed to operate in the front and rear bumper area of BMW F10 and F11 series models. It is responsible for precise obstacle detection during maneuvering, working in conjunction with the factory parking system. A properly functioning sensor ensures clear acoustic and visual signals, which facilitates parking in tight spaces and reduces the risk of body damage.

Color and visual fit

The finish in the Glacier Silber Metallic A83 shade allows for a consistent match with the body paint in the same color code. As a result, the component does not stand out from the other bumper components after installation, maintaining the vehicle's factory appearance. This is particularly important for post-accident repairs and when replacing a single sensor in an already painted bumper.

Technical characteristics and integration with the PDC system

The sensor belongs to the BMW parking sensors group, which means full integration with the original electrical installation and PDC controllers used in this generation of vehicles. The design is prepared for installation in the factory bumper socket, maintaining the correct operating angle and seating depth. Appropriately selected electrical and communication parameters enable correct cooperation with the system without the need for wiring modifications or interference with the vehicle's software.

Condition, origin, and benefits of choosing a used sensor

The item comes from dismantling and is offered as a used BMW PDC sensor, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining original manufacturing quality. Choosing a second-hand part allows for maintaining consistency with the factory system while reducing expenses compared to purchasing a new component. This is a practical option for maintenance repairs and for restoring full functionality of the parking system after one of the sensors is damaged.

Selection by numbers and system compatibility

This sensor model has a dedicated OEM part number and associated interchangeable numbers, which facilitates precise identification and selection for a specific BMW F10 or F11 unit. When matching, it is worth using the part number and vehicle data (VIN) to ensure full compatibility with the PDC system used in the car. This minimizes the risk of installation errors and problems with sensor communication with the controller. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the parking zone in your BMW and need other elements from the same group, such as additional sensors, mounting elements, or covers, check the available parts in the BMW parking sensors category.

Substantive support and knowledge about used electronics

When working with parking assistance systems, it is worth knowing the principles of selecting and installing used electronic components, such as PDC sensors. Detailed information on how to safely select and install modules and sensors from the secondary market can be found in the Global Parts guide: Used automotive electronics on board – why is it worth choosing ECU modules and sensors second-hand?
