I have a 2007 seat leon with a 2.0tdi engine, but I can't find the MAP (otherwise known as air intake sensor and thrust sensor). I've removed the air filter and housing etc, but I can't find it. I've bought a new replacement vw original MAP and I would love to fit it, if only I could find where it is. Any help appreciated?
MAP/Air intake sensor location?

It's definately not the MAF, I've ready replaced that. I cannot see it on the pipe coming from the intercooler. MAP is manifold absolute pressure sensor. The dealers called it a thrust sensor and others call it an air intake sensor.
Have a look at all the pipes that go into the intercooler and the intercooler itself. All posts I've read about the MAP sensor indicate that's where it should be.
Just found this as well. Diagram is a bit naff though.

Many thanks, looks like I wasted my time removing the hoses and air filter assembly (I was looking at the diagram for the altea).
I will have a look tomorrow, and thanks again.

This is where ETKA shows the location of the THRUST SENSOR for the 2.0 TDi (BKD) engine. It's no.18

Many thanks Timsawf, I have now found it. The hex screws holding are very rusty. I have tried all sizes of hex bits, but I am not having much joy. Would anyone know what size the hex screws are?
I know it's a bit late today but you will probably have to replace them if they're that rusty. Why not buy 2 new ones from a dealer then you will have a better chance of getting the right bit to fit. They're only about 30p each.
