Purpose and function of the PDC sensor

The PDC parking sensor in BMW X5 E70 and F10 models is responsible for continuously monitoring the space in front of and behind the vehicle during maneuvering. This component works with the factory acoustic and visual system, transmitting information about the distance from obstacles to the control unit. A properly functioning sensor increases daily driving comfort, facilitates precise parking in tight spaces, and helps reduce the risk of minor damage to bumpers and body components.

Imperial Blue Metallic A89 color and visual fit

The presented sensor is finished in the factory Imperial Blue Metallic - A89 color, used in many BMW X5 E70 and F10 units. This ensures that the consistent styling line of the bumper is maintained after installation, without the need for additional painting. This is particularly important for post-accident repairs or when replacing a single sensor, where restoring the vehicle's original appearance as quickly as possible is a priority.

Vehicle placement and application

The sensor has been designed to work in both the front and rear zones of the vehicle, which facilitates its use in various configurations of the factory PDC system. This solution allows you to:

• replace a damaged element in the front or rear bumper without modifying the installation,
• maintain proper cooperation with the factory PDC control unit,
• preserve the original operating characteristics of the parking assistance system.

Thanks to its compatibility with the factory system, installation is limited to correctly seating the sensor in the bumper socket and connecting it to the existing wiring harness, without the need for any interference with the vehicle's electronics.

Product characteristics and condition

The offered item comes from the group of original BMW components, which translates into a proper fit for the bumper and correct cooperation with the vehicle's diagnostic system. The product is used, making it a cost-effective solution for maintenance repairs or after minor collisions, while maintaining performance parameters similar to factory-installed equipment.
