Turn the radio off first, select reverse and then adjust the radio volume knob.
I tried it this morning and it does work.
Let us know if it works for you.

Perhaps it only works on cars without Nav ... if nobody else tries and posts results here before Wednesday, I will do so.

When you say "switch the radio off", do you mean "mute", as it's not possible to switch it off.
I will have a play with it lunch time and see if I can write a bit more concise description.

My car is in the garage until Wednesday, I'm heading off to London for a couple of days so dropped the car off this morning and said "STOP MY BRAKES SQUEAKING" very politely, honest. I will try it as soon as I pick it up. When you say "switch the radio off", do you mean "mute", as it's not possible to switch it off.

Put something real close to one of the front sensors, get in car, start engine, radio off (mute), press PDC button, keep in neutral.
PDC beeps and display is red. Turn radio volume knob clockwise to increase volume, anti-clockwise to reduce.
I did this just 2 minutes ago and there are at least 3 different volume levels.
Regards,
