Water Temp Sensor Location

My car is throwing the CE code for the water temp sensor, and sometimes is a pain in the butt to start. I did a search and found the part #, but does anyone know where the sensor is actually located? If you had/could take a pic that'd be helpful.

I think its on the driverside of the engine back towards the firewall.

Yes, it's also the 2 wire sensor.

It takes about 10 minuets to replace. Drivers side under the back of the intake manifold.

Awesome

Does the intake need to come off to get to it?

nope.
I don't think you need to even remove the throttle body cover.

I replaced mine in the parking lot at work with only a ratchet and a rag in under 15 minutes.

The brown connector in the center of the pic is connected to the temp sensor.
