I think I know the answer to this but do I have to pull the rear bumper to replace one of the parking sensors? Or is there a shortcut?

I have identified the faulty sensor and have a new part already sprayed up. Is it plug and play or will I need to use VCDS to reset etc?

Thanks

When unit 20 replaced mine it was bumper off to replace the central sensors.
I believe the outer ones can be done without removing the bumper.
Plug and play I believe.

What Steve said.

They are plug and play.

Thanks. It’s a central one

Bumper off job for you.

Bringing up an old thread..

I have an outer rear to replace drivers side

HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS WITH BUMPER ON lol

Can i get away with not fully removing it and just enough to get up in there?

From memory unit 20 replaced my rear outer sensors with the bumper in place.
But they did have it up in the air on a ramp.

So I would have thought a jack and axle stands would offer similar access.

interesting, i was led under it and i cant even get my arm in the gap to the sensor, i would like to note i have thin arms lol

Il have to whip the bumper off at somepoint

Okay I did this!

In the end I replaced 3 sensors teach me to scan the car before stripping it won’t it!

Whoever has done it with the bumper on I salute you, not a prayer for me and I have thin arms!

Anyway bumper off in 10 mins highly recommend doing that and there’s a good seller on eBay £29.99 a sensor painted to the colour of the car
