It appears to be. I undid the wheel arch liner and had a jiggle. All seemed fine. 2021 3.0 P400 Vogue

No experience of the issue you describe, but I have had numerous false positives when the sensor faces corrode and delaminate, they then come on when eg reversing into an empty space. So it is possible that the car is "aware" that it is turning into the area covered by the sensor in question and the delamination then causes the false positive signal, rather than that it is "seeing" the wheel. Sometimes a piece of leaf or other debris stuck to the sensor face can cause a false positive too.

Thanks. That sounds pretty plausible. Anyone know a good supplier of sensors who doesn’t charge £1M? 2021 3.0 P400 Vogue 2012 4.4 TDV8 Westminster - gone! 2007 3.6 TDV8 Vogue - gone! 2003 4.4 V8 HSE (LPG) - gone! 2018 F-Pace 25t Portfolio 1974 LR Series III Lightweight FFR 2014 BMW 640i Gran Coupe |

Mine were done under the LR 6yr corrosion warranty, the second time there may have been an element of goodwill arranged by the dealer as the problem had recurred in only about a year. If your car is a 2021 then maybe you could get it sorted that way ie FOC? Only Range Rovers since 1988 |

Sensors will be 18MY onwards if your looking for replacements? 12-18 won't work or indeed fit... |
