I want to change the engine coolant temperature sensor, but I do not know where it is located.

Good morning.

Can you verify the engine size?

I only list a 2.0 engine.

Here is a diagram showing it under the ignition coil which appears to be at the rear of the engine on the 2.0l.

I guess it is an import. I do not have the information on imports, just the American side.

I found out it was manufactured in Saarlouis (Germany). That is most likely why you are having such a hard time finding information.
