Any tips how to gain access to the cps on a 2001 c320?



Ive had a look underneath and from the top and cant even see the thing, i can just see the plug that goes into the cps but its shrouded in other looms.



Ive had my arm up from underneath and can just touch the plug but cant even feel the torx bolt that holds the sensor in.



Looks easy on my 113.



Ps its the wifes car so is of utmost importance!, now of to post same on the other forum.

Yep you are spot on there what a barsteward.

Removed and cut alost everything just to see the thing, managed to get the plug off and now my cheapo home tools wont do the job so will have to finish tomorrow.

I see what you mean about the plasters!

Yet on my 430 you can see it plain as day.

Few pics for other members.
