    Guys I have a small issue with my passenger inside front sensor on the grill.
    It shows on the screen it is right next to something when it is not but only in the rain. I have dried it but makes no odds?
    All other sensor work on the front and rear when it is doing this.


    Any ideas?


    Thanks

    Have you tried swapping it with another known working sensor? If the fault moves then I'd say it had maybe short circuited in the rain and a new one is needed.

    Or a VCDS scan if available, however that's not needed if the swap moves the fault.
