Parking sensor popped in

Post by Stark » Tue Aug 21, 2012 8:19 pm

Hi, some advice would be welcomed....

One of my parking sensors has popped in, ie inside the rear bumper. I think I was cleaning the sensors a bit too much and pushed one in....tried to get it back and then in it went.

Question is, does the bumper need to come off to get it back on again?

Thanks everyone

Not done one myself, but the dealer replaced 3 of mine recently under warranty (in two batches) and said that they can get up behind the bumper and didn't need to remove it. Based on the speed they did them, I'm guessing they're right :thumbsup:

Just noticed this was an E89 thread, but hopefully the same applies.

how on earth did they do this?! The outer ones maybe through the footwell but no chance for the middle ones. :unsure:

The e85 rear bumper is off in 10 mins though! Easier then the front even!
