A4 Avant B7 rear parking sensor fault finding
Hi
I recently had retro cobra rear sensors fitted to my A4 Avant B7. They have suddenly stopped working and I would like to be able to test the unit. The control box was installed in the passenger side behind the trim. I cant find any thread showing me how to remove the trim to get at the box. any help much appreciated !
Thanks

if the trims are fixed the same as the b6 then pull away the boot seal and this should allow the rear trims to be pulled off the fixing clips, find a thread for removing a rear bumper

The B7 Avant is a bit more complicated than that. This guide includes info on removing boot trims and bumper:
https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/s...ersing-sensors. See page 3.
Or the Haynes Manual has good procedures for these operations. It advises removing the rear seat bench and side padding, which would help a lot when reinstalling the side trim panel.
If you are lucky, your problem may just be a loose connection on the buzzer unit.
