Hi Take a look at these pics 1&2

On one you can see it top left by the oil filler cap with the leads going into it

Pic 2 shows the 3 wires leading to it. to remove disconnect the wiring plug from the sensor, undo the torx screw 5mm socket works a treat,discard the seal if damaged in the book it says fit new one

most times the O-ring is fine.

I also needed to find where the cam sensor was today for my diesel - and Steve's pics had gone AWOL - so here they are:

1. Remove engine cover (8mm socket)
2. Remove the one holding screw (4mm socket).
