Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented PDC sensor is dedicated to operation in the front and rear bumper zones, allowing it to be used for both front and rear vehicle repairs. As a component of the parking assistance system, it is responsible for:

• continuous measurement of the distance from obstacles in the immediate vicinity of the car,
• transmitting signals to the PDC control unit,
• cooperation with the vehicle's acoustic and visual signaling systems. Selecting the correct sensor from this series helps avoid compatibility issues, system errors, and uneven operation of the entire parking system.

Color and visual fit

The finish in Singapore Grey Metallic - B41 is important not only for aesthetic reasons but also for correct installation in the factory bumper socket. A properly matched color:

• reduces the need for additional painting after installation,
• ensures a consistent look with the original body paint,
• allows the car to maintain its factory character after repair. For users who pay attention to visual details, this is a practical solution that facilitates quick and orderly component replacement.

Technical characteristics and integration with the PDC system

The sensor belongs to the BMW OEM group, meaning it is designed for direct compatibility with the factory electrical installation and the PDC control unit. As a result:

• the correct distance measurement characteristics are maintained,
• communication with the control module follows the manufacturer's specifications,
• there is no need for adapters or wiring modifications. The product has an assigned OEM part number and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates compatibility verification with specific vehicle configurations in BMW catalogs and professional parts selection systems.

Condition and service application

The sensor is offered in Used condition, making it an attractive service solution for users looking for original components at a reasonable price. Such elements are often chosen for:

• post-accident bumper repairs,
• replacement of individual damaged PDC sensors,
• diagnostics and troubleshooting of parking system errors. A properly selected used sensor allows for the restoration of full system functionality without the need to replace the entire set of components.
