Default Easy replacement of rear parking buzzer

This post saved me a lot of time - Thank you! I replaced my rear buzzer from the trunk side last weekend and it saved me a lot of headache. I wanted to post the following pictures to show how I attached the new buzzer.

I decided that trying to get the rivets back in from the top side would be almost impossible, so I used the "u-nut" in the picture and some stainless screws.

Have similar code. Said break or shut to ground.

Need a check soon.

Not sure whether this is the reason that no parktronic.

Not clear whether it was front or rear neither.

Just had this problem. Replacement part off eBay for $10, job done.

Although the workshop manual way is to replace it from the inside. You pry up the front edge of the speaker grille then pull it forward, unplug the 3rd brake light and remove it. You then release the push pins holding the speaker in place. You access these pins from inside the trunk by pulling the rear edge of the liner down (3 push pins and unscrew both bag hangers).

Then just swap the speaker and reassembly is the reverse. Trickiest part was remounting the speaker and push pins. Has to be done by feel but it’s fairly easy when you know what it is you need to do. Some more pics to help other folks.

Would this apply to the fault Park Assist Button - Short circuit to ground as well? I recently Had to take out the MMI display because some dummy did a hack job "fixing" the power wires for the display and broke again. .Leaving behind a razor blade. Since putting things back together, all is well but now i no longer get the camera to show picture when reversing and no audible sounds except for going in reverse that long beep. The park assist button blinks to. Also, from passenger side fuse "box" is there a ground wire there that is secured by a bolt that is for the park assist? I remember faintly seeing that but now can not find it there. I am going crazy! Please help?

Don’t know. This is for the D3 2004-09 A8.

You should ask your question is the D4 2011-18 A8 section of the forum.
