Hi everyone I had a check parking sensor light go on last week. After researching I found it a small rock had hit and damaged the sensor. Cost of the local dealership was going to cost about $500. I was able to order the part for about $120 online and change it in about three minutes. Please see the attached videos and apologize for the terrible quality I am not a great videographer. hope it helps save everybody some money. Just so you know my right front sensor broke but I think this can be applied for most of the sensors.

No I haven't resolved this yet. I went to take out the "new" sensors the other day but because it is colder now they are super tight so will have to heat them up or wait til the weather gets warmer. Chances are I may be taking my lease back early for a 2024 next week so we will see what the dealer says. Hopefully they say they will just take care of it.

Just a follow up for anyone who may come across this thread. I did finally get a sensor that worked. It was a 5WA, not 5WD as mine shows, but it came off a parts car 2021 ID.4 so being OEM did the trick(bought on eBay). I think there may just be issues getting third party ones to work. I know others have had no problems with Aliexpress, etc but those didn’t work for me.
