park aid fault?

jlo · 13-07-2008, 19:46

Hi All,

Wife now is proud owner of 1.9 TDI Roomster 3. Its an ex milton keynes car 07 plate jobby.

We are very pleased with it however today when putting in to reverse we got a load long beeb from the park aids and then the display just went back to the radio. In the book it says if this happens there is a fault.

Guess its a visit back to the dealers but wondered if anyone else had this fault?

Cheers

Jlo

Welcome to Briskoda, Have a look to see if one of the sensors has dirt on it.

The car is still in warranty, if your sensors are clean then you should take it back to your dealer.

Thanks for the tips. Cleaning the park aids did not help unfortunatly. Car booked in next monday (at Skoda dealer) to be looked at.

Cheers

My fathers Roomster made a similar noise, but one of the sensors had fallen into the bumper! Had to get them all re glued into place!

Hi All,

Well had a phone call from the dealers saying there is a very small mark on the bumper and you can see where its been pushed in and bounced back out again (just the plastic looks like its been touched by a sharp object)

I think it may have been there when we bought the car. Anyhow its close to the faulty sensor (on the bumber) and dealer saying it may be covered under warantee but if its due to bumper damage then it won't be (£150 cost aprox)

So have taken car back and drop off to garage we bought the car of. They are a Ford toyoto dealer but have a Skoda branch in Redditch. Will see if they can sort it out FOC

Cheers
