mak156 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Long story short but my mother backed into my car earlier and did a small bit of damage incl the parking sensor. I disconnected the sensor and cleared the codes but the parking assist light is still flashing and none of the front sensors are working. I assume because one sensor is damaged the system has just essentially shut it down until I get it fixed?聽 Have the unenviable joy of replacing the matrix headlight as well but that's another story 馃槥馃槥馃槥 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mak156 Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 I got a genuine one from autodoc. The headlight is a pain. Only the lens is cracked but I know it means a whole new unit聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mak156 Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 Ah cool, I might give it a go. If it fails it's a small price to pay to try.聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Thanks Barry, Do Autodoc sell genuine VAG ones then? Thought they were all aftermarket.聽 I bought an aftermarket one from an eBay seller, and it was even embossed with the correct Audi part number. Seemed a bargain at less than 拢20 compared with VAG of nearer 拢120 each.聽 Experience:- works well in dry conditions, not so in wet.聽 Kind regards, Gareth.聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
