Audi A3 OEM Parking Sensors Retrofit with MMI Display Integration
This 2017 Audi A3 8V facelift just got a serious upgrade — we’ve retrofitted front and rear OEM Audi parking sensors, complete with the original optical display that now shows up on the MMI screen. 🛠️🚗
Ever wished your Audi had come with all the factory tech? This customer did — and we made it happen. Our latest project involved fitting a full set of OEM Audi A3 OEM parking sensors to this facelifted 8V model, ensuring full functionality and integration with the MMI display. No aftermarket modules, no guesswork — just a clean, factory-standard install that feels like it was always there. 😎
Clean, OEM-Level Finish
This wasn’t your typical plug-and-play retrofit. We spent a full working day removing the front and rear bumpers, routing the wiring looms using factory grommets, and installing the sensors into genuine Audi mounts. The final result? A seamless finish that looks and behaves like it left the Ingolstadt factory that way.
Tested and Properly Coded
Once the hardware was in, we moved onto the software side. Using ODIS and VCDS, we coded the control modules to recognise the new parking system. The full optical display is now live on the MMI screen — giving the driver visual proximity info front and rear. No warning lights, no faults — just true OEM functionality.
Why This Retrofit Matters
Many 8V Audi A3s came without parking sensors, especially earlier facelift models. But with a little expert help and genuine parts, it’s possible to retrofit this feature exactly as Audi intended. From safer parking to increased resale value, it’s a small change that makes a big difference. Plus, combining it with other vag retrofits unlocks even more potential from your vehicle.
