There is a sensor in the bumper.
Tells you when your are getting close to something.
I don't know the details.
Can't tell you if you have it or not.

PDC is parking distance control and basically are little circle things along the bumper that tell you how close your car is to an object, but you're car has to have it pre installed stock. If you have PDC currently on your e90 then get the bumper with PDC, if you don't..don't get it.

Different options. You can stop the mirror from folding in reverse but flipping the left/right mirror switch. ZThis was on all 330's.

PDC, (parking distance control), is available front or rear. Option for 330's. You will see the dots in the bumper. When you get close to stuff, it beeps with a changing tone as you get closer. May display a picture on the IDrive if you have it.

Mine doesn't beep at least I never heard it but it does have a square in the front and back

Square is for the tow hook, (pop it out and look), not PDC.
