Temperature Sensor Location ML550

Do any of you know where the coolant temperature sensor is located on a ML550? I can't find a diagram anywhere.

ML550 coolant temperature removal and install

Here you go. Looks like you'll need to pull out the old sensor and immediately put in the new one to prevent excess coolant loss. Have fun.

Hey thanks for that. I should have known it would be in a convenient place.

On my W164, the OBD II coolant sensor reads differently from, and usually slightly lower than, the dashboard gauge.
Based on my wifes M272 engine, I know that the dashboard gauge is the sensor on the thermostat housing.
Is this sensor the one read by OBD II?
