In this video, you will see where the camshaft sensor is located in the Mercedes E-Class and how to proceed if you need to replace it, a very simple and quick operation. As shown, the sensor is positioned at the front left of the engine, just below the air filter manifold.

Before removing it, ensure the engine is cool enough, then open the hood, remove the plastic cover, and take off the manifold itself. Next, disconnect the power connector, remove the single mounting bolt with an E8 wrench, and install the replacement part.

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake.
