There are two sensors. The one on TOP back of the engine on the intake manifold (as pictured from the previous post) and one just prior to the throttle body on the INTAKE TUBE coming from the TURBO's intercooler. This MAP is on the back side of the tube.

FYI - for those folks who post without answering a question, which causes all of to scroll through none-sense. The intake comes into the intake box that wraps around the back of the engine, then down to the passenger side to route through the turbos and intercooler, then back up and under the box to the throttle body. The air takes an entire lap around the engine before digested.

This helped a lot - I found it by accident who I took the engine cover off to change spark plugs. Bently seems to call it "intake manifold charge air pressure sensor".
Per Bentley There appears also to be a "charge air duct pressure sensor". Can anyone tell if this is similar and do I clean them both the same way?
THanks
