    That sensor is on the timing chain cover front a cylindrical sensor plugged in near the exhaust cam would be. Its about $200 bux from my dealer, mine was replaced last year.
    I dont have a photobucket acct so I cannot place a pic at the moment.

    Before the site went down there were quite a few of these CELs. So here is the scoop:
    There is on the front side of the cylinder head behind the idler pulley is a small cover plate with 2 bolts that holds the VTC strainer. Inspect that first and clean if necessary. If it has to be cleaned then more than likely you have to replace the oil and filter too.
    The one on the timing chain cover facing the passenger side wheel with PNC on it is the VTC OIL CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
    The ones circled on the rear of the cylinder head is the VTC SOLENOID VALVE.
    All of these are related to your error. PM me and I can email you the pages from the manual or Google EP3 manual and look up pages 11-120 thru 11-129.
