E61 LCI Parking Sensor Part number

[Order66]

Wondering if anyone can help - I've got a 2007 E61 LCI (3.0) 525d. Trying to get a front parking sensor for it and bought a few off ebay, but none work.

So now wondering if I've got the correct part number. The part of the ebay items was 66202180495 and they physically fit, but simply don't work - even switching them with a known good part produces no "ticking" like the good ones do. Unfortunately the sensors in the car have no part numbers on them.

So are there other part numbers for these sensors I should look out for - they are the "right angled" ones and not the straight ones?

Are they non genuine? I’ve never found a non gen PDC sensor that works on a BMW (others have).

Re part No’s try realoem website.

RealOEM site for you: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/partgrp?id=PX52-E...

All part numbers on there

Rear PDC: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=PX52... (part number 5)

Part number for yours, by the looks of it, ends 149; this is a company I've used in the past for E39 rear PDC sensors and never had any issues:

Big help, thanks - I'll see if I can order up some better sensors with the correct part number...
