On a TD4 yes if so you can remove it and clean it with some carb cleaner, but always best to clean the manifold and EGR at the same time, I have just done four manifolds ready for our meets starting this weekend.

Hi JimJamer, what exactly are you asking? is it where the MAP is, how to replace it? best place for a new one?

Yes I’m looking to clean all of that this weekend as I’ve got my self a replacement part so can clean one whilst still keeping it mobile, I just don’t know where to locate certain parts under the bonnet

map sensor is below the engine cover
on the side of the intake manifold

You'll need to unplug the MAP sensor to remove the inlet manifold. There's little point in replacing the MAP unless you're cleaning out the manifold at the same time.

Brilliant thanks, just what I needed to see this is of great help, the only other thing I’ve got to locate is the boost control valve as I’ve gor a code come up P1E30. Thanks

I presume you mean for the turbo.

If you look through the cut out in the drivers side inner wing you will see it. Small black thing with 3 small (6-8mm) pipes going to it

the boost control valve

you on about the turbo vacuum solenoid ?

if so .. be a pic in post no.1

can be seen - worked on - through the offside wheel arch
and .. from under the vehicle just behind .. and left of .. the wheel
easier methinks to work on it from underneath ..

Thanks all I’ve got to the bottom of it all was an electrical fault so now I just need to find out where I can get a new plug from as need to splice some cables together. I’ve done a temporary repair with an electrical connection block

Let me look in my shed tomorrow I have a few R40 looms they use the same plug

 

[Arctic2]

I managed to find the loom in my shed, therefore I took the opportunity to dissect it so each plug and connection was separate, the plug you are after is the Turbocharger boost temperature sensor right< with two wires red/white brown/grey. as opposed to the turbo boost pressure sensor, (MAP) which as three wires connected to it.

Drop me a message if you need the plug

That's a 2 pin Female Junior Power Timer Connector Plug. They are common and cheap. But make sure you get all the plug components needed. Amazon have them for about £5 for the kit.
