Yep, but that's where it is. Probably behind a metal plate instead.

No. Couple T40 torx screws. Most people don't have these screwdrivers laying around, but you can find a set at Lowes or Home Depot.

The cam position sensor hasn't moved. It's in the same place on a 1999 model.

The air intake hose may need to be moved out of the way (if it's a turbo), but it still should be on the exhaust cam on the drivers side of the engine, behind a metal cover.

Does the metal cover have to be removed to access the sensor
