Re: Vss

the sensor I am talking about is just next to the gear selector on top of the transmission... I was told it is connected to the valve body. and the only way to get it off is to take the valve body out and it will slide up. the plug is D shaped.

I replaced it(in about 20 minutes and 22$ later) and the car runs great again. I hope this helps you. Let me know how you make out.
