Parking sensors

Z4 Beemer · 06-26-2007, 05:42 AM

Can anyone confirm whether (with the rear parking sensors) the car beeps louder at the side of the car where an obstacle is detected? When I'm reversing out the driveway in the morning the right side of the car will detect something first (before the left side) and I'm sure I can hear the beeping noise change from one side of the car to the other???

Yes they seem to do so. I have front and rear PDC and the sound seems to come from whatever corner the sensor picks up.

Brilliant - thanks for reply. I thought that might have been the case.

Was wondering the same thing myself this morning as I reversed out of my drive. Thanks
