    PDC Sensor replacement...

    Need to replace one of my front parking sensors on my e60 MSport.

    Can anyone here point me in the right direction as to get a replacement? I've seen companies doing spurious ones, but are they any good?

    Thanks in advance

    Fair play John! Would these exact ones fit my e60, do you know?

    From the part numbers he's listed it looks like they will.

    However there are two types (as I discovered on the e39 and x5) some have straight connector and some have a 90 degree connector. Also they will need to be painted body colour too.

    I got mine on eBay too, I think it was 20 euro, it's the older style for prefacelift cars.

    I found the seller to be very knowledgable. Pop him a message and he should be able to recommend the right thing

    Older style on the E46 has a 'window' so to speak with a slight red tint. They cannot be painted. Newer style have flat faces and can be painted.
