Replace front corner parking sensor on facelift E53

Post by j2d » Thu May 08, 2014 10:17 pm

I know there are loads of post regarding faulty PDC and replacing them, but can find the info i'm after

I have a faulty front corner parking sensor, from realOEM.com I think the part I need to replace is

66206989068?

I have found this on ebay  -  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-PDC-Parki ... 19ea2044c7

Does that look right?

Also, how do I go about replacing this sensor? Can it be replaced from the front? Or do I need to get in behind? If so, do I need to remove the bumper?

Thanks in advance

The sensor shown looks correct L shape for the corner  "pre facelift bumper on facelift bumper off",
done the o/s front on my facelift X took around 1 hour 20 min, if I had to do it again 1 hour start to finish should see the job done,
