Mine goes back in on Tuesday for the 2nd time in 3 months for this to be sorted again. 
AFAIK they changed all the rear sensors last time - will be interesting to know what they change this time.

That's mine started acting up again yesterday. Gave the sensors a clean with a piece of tissue paper and seemed ok. back at it today again, but this time the tone is intermittent, going on and off every few seconds.
Time to call the franchise me thinks.

tried the hairdryer trick (missus not happy about mucky fingerprints on her drier though), worked for a day or too, now knackered again. How easy is it to take them out, or to check if its just one of them playing up?

Mine have started playing up this week. Bet it's to do with the crud covering the back end.
Due a spruce up tomorrow so hopefully that will cure it. Welcome "Lola"

Al
I have just been told that it is a full bumper off job,2 hrs?
Car booked in on the 29th. Told it can be one of three things, either water ingression into the sensor itself, a faulty sensor or a fault in the wiring harness (probably the sensor harness,rather than the main).

Is there a way with the diags/puter to tell which sensor is dicky?
