Good evening,
My first post, probably of many.
Recently bought a 2008 Flying Spur, very happy, but have an annoying problem when putting the car into reverse.
Makes a loud beep, I have seen on another post that it is a faulty parking sensor or sensors.
My question is how to test which one, also is access from the panel underneath the car just in front of the rear bumper?
Also we're is best to buy replacement sensors?
Any help much appreciated.
Kindest regards,
Nigel (Locked down, in Estepona southern Spain).

 

Is it constant for like 2 secs? Off memory I think mines beeps everytime I put it in reverse for a few seconds then silence until I’m close to something. I do know they are sensitive as heck tho. My issue with a beeping sound is if I’m at a light and it will go off and nothing is around me. I’m close to thinking it has something to do with it needs a service right now.

 

Yes it beeps for around 2 seconds, seems longer as it is so loud. But the parking sensors do not function at all.

 

Hopefully there is a member close to you with Ross-Tech or a scanner that can scan the car and give you the list of codes. Where are you located just in case I’m they see this and can offer you help? Even with social distancing you can plug it in the port in while they use the pc from a safe distance...🤷🏾

As previously mentioned, had a long beep when putting into reverse. The solution came when I had the rear bumper resprayed, the mechanic found that the right mid sensor cable was cut! He just reconnected and all good now. Nice inexpensive fix, very happy to have the rear parking sensor working again.....
