W210: E320 Wagon - Coolant Temp Sensor

I've ordered a new coolant temp sensor for my 2001 E320 Wagon. Where is this sensor located on the engine. A diagram, good explanation, or picture would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Bump. I'd like to know too. It's on my list of things to replace soon.

Thanks.

Sensor Location

It is located at the top/front of the engine. If you pop off the plastic engine cover, you will see it at the top/front of engine just left of center. If you have trouble spotting it, let me know. I can post a picture.

BTW, the reason I changed mine was to help solve a stalling problem when engaging the transmission when the engine is cold. Unfortunately, the new sensor did not help.

Check all

your vacuum lines to the intake.You can test a coolant temp sensor instead of installing a new one just to see if it cures a problem.
