Rear Park Assist
 

Got my rear park assist fitted today by the dealer. Works ok but man is it loud, anyone know if it can be turned down.

Hey Nice! I was actually just thinking about getting the same option fitted but not sure if its any good??

How much did Nissan Charge you? have you got any pics of the new parts installed?

The Part (B85A51E000AU) cost $259.20 and consist of four sensors mounted into the rear bumper. I get some pics up on the weekend. Overall I'm happy with it doesn't look too obtrusive.

Is the rear visibily really that bad that this is needed.
Everytime I see those sensors in the bumper they just look shyte, no offence, but if they are needed then I can understand.

If you reverse park allot, you would get quite proficient at it and wouldn't need the park assist. However, with the park assist it does make parking a lot easier. The real problem is pulling out of a parallel park, this is where a reversing camera with a wide angle of view would be good. The park assist doesn't help in this situation.

I would have the same ones, only annoying thing is though that when i start the car with the stick in reverse, they continually beep until i go into neutral then back.

How loud is yours? I find it's too loud, frightened the crap out of me this morning when I put it in reverse.

Well it's loud but not overly loud, I've never crapped myself from putting it in reverse lol

However.... you can hear it pretty loudly from outside to the point that my mate thought I had put reverse beepers in the car so I don't run over anyone... I think they just beep from inside the bumper on mine, yours speaker might be placed in a different location or something?..

Mine sounds like its coming from behind the passengers seat. I've attached the instructions that came with the kit. Is this the same as yours?

Hmmm, not sure I never got the instructions with them because they were installed when i bought the car, but from the details it seems about right. They would be using the same ones anyway if they are installed at nissan.

Thanks! This device can become very handy if you have kids running around or parallel parking in an extra tight spot!

Heres a pic showing the park assist installed. I don't think they look too bad considering the advantages. From a distance you don't even notice they are there.

I got front and rear parking sensors and reversing camera (Alpine)!

Visibility at the rear is shocking and front sensors make parking easier since the front is long.

Did you get these fitted locally Mr Ed? If so how much did it cost you?

$1500 for reverse camera with a relay, it camera comes on where you go into reverse. still have AUX facility

$900 for front and rear parking sensors.

got them fitted in brisbane

Hey Guys,

I have been pretty keen on this thread. I just got my car yesterday with the reversing camera. The camera is excellent and engages when the car is put in reverse.

I am tempted to get the front sensors but not sure if they are worth it. The main reason is I want to avoid low hanging objects (i.e crappy designed car parks with huge concrete blocks). Not sure if the front sensors will warn againt this?

Hi Sap,

Where & how much did you paid for the reversing camera?

Im getting reversing mirror fitted to my 370z does your image come through the satnav screen? I was told they cant hook it up through screen and have to have mirror instead? Would like to know because prefer screen

I fitted mine at Audio FX - Melbourne's Ultimate Car Electronic Specialist.., talk with Tony or Yohan...., they will albe to help you out! :tup:

Thanks Bezzita! Will have a chat to Tony or Yohan. How much did it cost for the installataion?

Have you issues with front parking sensors, which don't want to turn of after reverse? It raised few times after gearing reverse. Them couldn't be turn off if I start with geared reverse every time! :mad:
