Can’t find it to save my life. I know it’ll be on the engine block, but where exactly?

Good afternoon,

The sensor is under the front cover for the timing belt. The cover must be removed to gain access.

Unfortunately, yours is buried under the front engine covers and a lot needs to be removed to gain access.Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
