Longitude & Latitude Sensors

Radders · 15-06-2010, 10:03 AM

I am told that there is two sonsors on an E46 M3, longitude and Latitude

one is mounted in the passenger foot well and the other i think is under the bonnet next to the brake servo. Does anyone know which is which?

the one in the footwell is still there but the one under the bonnet is gone and i need to order and re-fit.

SMG cars wont run correctly without them and i cant find anyone who knows how to program around it.

any help will be very much appreciated and if anyone has one of the said sensors spare that would be even better!

Take a look on real OEM and you'll be able to find the part number

Mark, Im certain thorney removed the traction control element so I think it will be hard to get it to code.

the two sensors affect the traction Shane, Tango I suffered the same problem. Sensors were wired back in, system re-booted and happy days!

Yes but Im sure Thorney removed the pump for the traction control?

Not 100%, best asking the mech who ripped it out.
