    Hi Hamta
    There is a park distance control over the navigation DVD player in the left panel in the boot. Have you looked into it.
    Please let me know if u get any luck

    Kindest regards

    Many thanks drknmirza, I managed to get it to a good car electrician who identified that one of the front sensors was at fault. I happened to have a replacement that I brought some months back which he fitted - now the parking sensors work. It took him about an hour to diagnose and fit it. He charged me £55.

    However, It seems the front sensors are way more sensitive than the rear ones and the replacement he fitted seems to almost always be on once in parking mode.

    I guess this is a different problem so I ought to start a new thread, but thanks very much for your help. Let me know if I can help more in anyway.

    Regards

    Hi Hamta
    Would you be able to pass me the details of the electrician who sorted your parking sensors.
    I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Hi drknmirza, I went to Manchester Car Audio - the guy was pretty good. Not sure where you are based but worth a try if you are near.

    Yes it’s the one on Stockport road. I’m not sure why a link came up with car-audio as I didn’t put one in - must be the autobots. Here is the correct link Manchester Car Audio
