I have also asked this question a few months ago. As far as i understand it's not that easy. You will need to replace some modules and add some extra sensors. Check this thread.

You need PMA module and extra sensor for front (parallel parking) and rear if want to install also horizontal parking(only LCI has rear). Route pdc from rem to pma and coding. Also U must replace front abs sensors if you have regular cruise control.

I have the PMA module installed. Also parallel parking is installed on my car(6 parking sensors on the front of the vehicle) . Even the adaptive cruise control is factory fitted to my car. Still, no AutoPDC sad Can you please post here what coding has to be made for AutoPDC?

you need PMA2 module from LCI model , I have PMA2 in my F31 with 12 sensors in total,  therefore I have auto PDC working fine  .auto PDC does not exist in PMA1

anyway , coding in the headunit in order to enable auto PDC as the following :

MACRO_PMA_EINPARKEN > gen2_ohne_konf
PDC_FLANKENSCHUTZ > aktiv
AUTO_PDC > aktiv
COMMUNICATION_PARKMASTER > gen2

Ok, just what i thought. We need to replace the PMA with PMA2. If we add PMA2, we need to add 2 extra sensors to the rear bumper. Is this all? Or do we need to replace even further modules?

For Hardware assembly are already done acc. to ISTA instruction.
Only coding are incorrect now.

How about other ECUs? only HU and PMA2 are not enough.

you also need change DSC. (if you have ACC, then no needed)

RE: PMA (auto park assist) for F30
who said you need to change DSC ????

and my post was only answering Alexandru.k_24 question about auto PDC .

@Alexandru.k_24 , you need PMA2 module from LCI F3x and rear normal PDC sensors , front sensors are special PMA sensors but rear PMA are simply a regular PDC .

You mean after code 5DP to HU, how to have auto PDC when switch to R position by shifter, am I right?

But how to install all functions of PMA2? do you know the coding way?

RE: PMA (auto park assist) for F30
Ok...long story...short! This is wayyy to complicated just for AutoPDC. For me...the sensors and rear camera automatically switch on when reversing. I thought that would be easyer(coding or something) to activate the front sensors at low speed. But changing half of the modules of the car just for that...no thanks! Thank you!
