I have a DB9 with a damaged rear mesh diffuser trying to remove the two PDC sensors to reinstall in new diffuser but cant figure out how its done,thanks for any help

 

My car is in storage but when I fitted my new rear diffuser on my 09 Vantage I had to move mine and if the DB9 is like the Vantage they are 2 parts, the middle sensor which has to come out first and then the ring that hold the sensor in place. They are a pain as it is hard to hold the 2 or 3 little tab at the same time... Good luck

 

do you remove sensor first and then the sleeve,i just cant seem to turn the sensor cant quite figure out what is holding it in the sleeve

 

Yes you have to remove the sensors first as the holding sleeve has 3 tab that have to be push in where the sensor is to be able to remove them... If I recall, there is like 2 or 3 little tab that needs to be lifted so that the sensor can be pushed in... it will come out from behind the bumper and then those 3 little plastic tab that you push in where the sensor was and push the holding sleeve out towards the outside of the bumper. Hope this help

 

Does your PDC look like mine...

 

yes it is the same,i will give it a try thanks

 

Figured it out what a pain in butt,it does not help that there is 7 years of dirt and dust in there,such a bad design,thanks for your help

 

Not a problem, glad we were able to get them out :-)
