Is it optioned? You are talking about the ultrasonic sensors that makes the car beep when approaching an obstacle right? Isn't that automatically on everytime you start the vehicle?

If you are talking about the ticking sound from the injectors then yes it is normal, I am unable to open that file for some reason, do you mind uploading to youtube and then linking it here?

If it doesn't beep then you might want to scan the car with a scanner for codes, if there are any. Make sure Parktronic off is not select. the icon looks like this. image from Google: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pr...roaTjxZUEqfYq8

Hmmm, is the vehicle bought new or you just bought it used, do you know and certain that it has front sensors? Most likely you know how the sensors look right? They are those circle indents. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/0DkAA...aN/s-l1200.jpg

Understood, time to scan the car for codes if any is present with a scanner like XENTRY.

They are either incorrectly wired or disabled in the car coding. Should automatically turn on when going below a certain speed and show the bars light up as you approach an obstacle.

You might also be missing the module entirely if the bumper was replaced.

Engine noise

Another question, is that a normal engine noise when the front engine cover is open?

Are you able to upload to youtube, I still can't play that video, this time it simply says the video is not accessible in my region (I am in Canada).

As for the parking sensor situation, you will need to connect a scanner and look for codes. If like the other forum member mentioned, the bumper was replaced, they might had indeed replaced it with one that has sensors but the car didn't originally came with sensors, you have rear sensors by chance? At least if you do have rear sensors, it might be real sensors in the front but still has a possibility of both front and rear bumpers replaced.

i took it to a shop. apparently those sensor holes are closed and do not have any sensors connected to it. the car came originally with sensors as i believe but doesnt have that now sadly. and no i do not have any back sensors.

Sorry to hear that, I guess the sad news is the front bumper was indeed replaced. I wonder why the front bumper was replaced : ( other than if it was an accident.
