You will find the little bugger right next to the oil filter, held in by one torx bolt (E8 i think)
and it plugs in at the rear of the plenum, where the wiring harness ends, just under the passenger side wiper arm. Take care when refitting to make sure wiring doesnt touch any hot bits!! :y

Hope this helps

yep, passenger side... get underneath the car, with you feet facing out of the car look under where the oil filter is. Its located underneath the oil filter and you will see a silver foil wrapped cable leading down to it.
