ACC Radar / Distance Radar VAG OEM (5Q0907561 A/B)
ACC Radar / Distance Radar VAG - OEM 5Q0907561A / 5Q0907561B
Genuine VAG ACC radar sensor (distance radar) for vehicles on the MQB platform with adaptive cruise control and driver assistance systems.
The radar sensor is located in the front of the vehicle and continuously measures the distance and speed relative to the traffic ahead. Adaptive cruise control (ACC), the distance warning and the emergency braking assistant (Front Assist), among others, rely on this data.
If the radar is faulty, damaged or has moved out of position, these systems fail or are deactivated by the vehicle. After a collision or front-end damage, replacement is often necessary.
This is a genuine OEM VAG part.

Possible symptoms and fault codes
A faulty, misaligned or uncalibrated ACC radar can cause the following symptoms, among others:
- Adaptive cruise control unavailable or dropping out while driving
- "Front Assist: fault" or "Driver assistance systems: fault" message in the display
- Distance warning and emergency braking assistant inoperative
- Systems that only fail after a few kilometres of driving
Fault codes in control module 13 – control unit for distance regulation (J428), among others:
- C110300 – ACC sensor incorrectly adjusted / misaligned
- B200FF0 – internal fault in the control unit for distance regulation (radar sensor)
A symptom or fault code does not automatically mean the radar is faulty. First check the mounting position and the front bumper for damage or dirt, then the connector and the wiring, and carry out a calibration. If the calibration keeps failing or there is an internal fault stored in the control unit for distance regulation (J428), the radar needs to be replaced.
Important installation information
PLEASE NOTE:
After installation the radar sensor must be coded and calibrated with suitable diagnostic equipment. Without correct calibration, adaptive cruise control and the related assistance systems will not work, or will not work reliably.
Calibration of this radar is carried out on the road in most cases (dynamic calibration), so the correct diagnostic equipment is all that is required.
We recommend installation and calibration by a qualified garage with suitable VAG diagnostic equipment.
