The clicking they refer too would be from the parking sensors so have someone other than the wife put the car in reverse while you get down and put your ear to each sensor on the back bumper to see if it clicks or not

On the D2, if the button on the dash flashes, then it's a sensor on the blink

Not true on my PF mine clicked whilst I had 2 dud sensors, makes pin pointing easier.




Can you have the engine off and select reverse? Even the misses can do that then :ROFL:

This evening reversing out my space at the supermarket my sensor bleep sounded like a police siren. Worked great earlier though:Confused:

Mine worked intermittently when I bought the car, good job as I used it to nock some money, they where just duff sensors, but until I replaced them they hit and miss, new sensors and they have been fine since.
