I ordered one from ebay, says it's a '1-touch' install.... yeh right!  Had hell trying to get it working!  But managed to get it working in the end. 

Here's a video showing what it's doing with INPA.  Hopefully someone can help!

You could check the earth straps, as when the engine is started it causes some vibration which could be casing a bad circuit.

There's one that's local to the PDC ECU which I have removed and checked, it was clean, same earth feeds 4x4  ECU which is working. Might not be the only one for the PDC setup but that's the only one I can see at the minute.

Happy Christmas to all by the way  :xmaswink:

....Just wanted to close this off.  I've resolved the issue... took a year!!!!  :))

The wrong sensors were in the bumper.  Phoned BMW and got the correct part number, compared the part number to the ones that were in the rear bumper and it was completely different.  Ordered the correct ones and guess what??  All works. 

CHECK PART NUMBERS PEOPLE  :)) would have saved me a lot of time if I did so in the first place instead of assuming that the ones already in the car were the correct ones.  Hope this helps someone else.
