[QUOTE="saat, post: 383891, member: 77"] I only got one set of balls and even then one of em is a little wonky. If you catch them, then I've gone none left and will be walking around like a ball-less chicken. My E39 didnt have PDC but has a MID. The E39 literature says that the BMW PDC only gives off an audible warning, there is no mention of a visual warning or distance indication. That's the reason why I did not comment on it. From what I know the MID can only display one color - amber characters on black background. From the literature, the On-Board Display (5" screen) will display Sat Nav, TV, Radio/Stereo, Telephone, OBC and Auxiliary Heater. No mention of PDC. This 5" screen is NOT the iDrive screen. My E46 was fitted with after-market reverse sensors. But the E46 I've seen with BMW PDC only has audible warning. My E90 has PDC and MID but there is only audible warning, no visual or distance indication on the MID. Like Davidtch. The only color coded graphical display of PDC that I've seen, are on the iDrive equipped cars like the E60 or E9X series. Bro Guna has said that this is what he has and Bro Kev has also said the same statement as mine. Since the E39 and E46 are not equipped with iDrive, there are no such feature as color coded graphical display of PDC. [/QUOTE]
