Another PDC question ....

I have only been on this forum a short time and read a lot about faulty PDC, usually the problem is described as a constant beep for a few seconds and a flashing light on the switch. I however don't have the same symptoms so figured it was worth seeing what people think. When I select reverse or ...

Re: CHANGING 3.0d breather assembly

Fair point regarding the age of the thread, i guess that’s inflation for you. My motor was built in Feb 05 so its unclear as to whether it has the new or old style breather so i thought i'd remove a few bits under the bonnet in order to try and see a part number. (I cant take it off fully to check a ...

Re: CHANGING 3.0d breather assembly

All, Having read some really good stuff on here about how to change the breather assembly and air filter I've decided to give it a go, but got a bit of a shock when getting parts prices from BMW. Air filter £48 inc VAT Full breather assembly - 11127799225 - £61 Inc VAT Breather filter - 11127799366 - ...

Re: PDC part no check

Can anyone confirm if the rear sensors can be replaced purely from behind the bumper (via the tow bar hatch)  or if you need to remove the PDC cover as well?

PDC part no check

Hi all, Looks like I have a failed PDC senor as I get a continuous beep when i select reverse. I've listened to each of the senors and the rear/middle/passenger seems to only make a very faint tick and the face has some wear so i assume that's the culprit. The rest 'tick' okay. My car is a 2005 X5 3 ...
