That's good news - 600 to 45 is always a good day plus you did it yourself

Can you tell me which service manual you downloaded?

I had found one on the pirate bay but I never managed to get it to work.
I looked at pictures of A6C7 bumpers on ebay in order to get a look at the inside of the bumper so I would know how everything was connected and installed.

Was there any painting required?

Nope, since the sensor that was dead was sitting in the grill of the car, all I had to do was to find a sensor that was meant to be there. A sensor that had that "blend in with the black glossy plastic"-look

Hi can you give a link to which ebay store you found the sensor. I have a similar problem.

That post is a couple of years old. The sensor is probably a generic part so search eBay using something like "Audi parking sensor" and see what pops up.

Hi, I could use a little more help here as well. Especially around the part about "I looked at pictures of A6C7 bumpers on ebay in order to get a look at the inside of the bumper so I would know how everything was connected and installed."

I can track down the part, but body panel work is always scary since one broken snap can lead to $100s.

I know I could find it eventually, but I'll through in the sob story that I'm trying to get ready to move my home and family and want to get this fixed pronto. More detail if you are willing and able:

2015 A6 Quattro 3.0T, right inboard parking sensor shows object close all the time, been too rainy and cold to do much more than check connector is still on and nothing looks odd. My garage is full of boxes and most tools already packed away (more sob story).
