Where is the turbo pressure sensor located in the Audi A3?

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance

In the Audi A3 8V, the turbo exhaust gas pressure sensor is located inside the engine compartment, on the driver's side. As we can see from the attached video, to access the sensor you must first remove the engine cover by disengaging the blocks placed at the corners. To locate the exhaust gas pressure sensor, we locate the oil filter easily recognizable by its shape and color, and move our view towards the bumper. We will be able to identify the sensor placed horizontally, to which a power connector and two pipes are connected.

How to Replace the Rear Light and Bulbs on a Ford Focus Year 2000

To replace the rear light and bulbs on a Ford Focus 2000/2004, first, open the tailgate of the boot. This gives access to the screw that holds the rear light in place. The screw to undo (using an appropriate screwdriver) is located inside the light and corresponds to the fold that accommodates the tailgate (as shown in the images). Once you start to undo it, continue with the operation and then remove the nut from the inside of the bodywork. At this point, you can remove the light, being careful to disconnect the electrical supply by unplugging the connectors or removing the entire bulb holder from its housing. This way, you can replace the bulbs. To reassemble everything, simply follow the described operations in reverse order.
