Also where do I buy them from as I cant find them on Euro Car Parts? Also is there a guide on how to fit these sensors?
I type TPS sensors on ebay and get 100's results and don't know which sensors are compatible with my car? I cant find APP sensors on ebay, where do I find APP sensors?

Obvious choice would be the dealers then you know you are getting the right part, but you won't get much change out of £120.
You could check on servicebox using your VIN, get the correct part number and then contact the ebay sellers to make sure it's compatible.

euro car parts do TPS as i got one for my dads 1.1 8v from there, was around £20-£30 iirc
i found sometimes your best going in there and let them look on there computer if you cant find what your looking for,

These are for a 2003 1,4 but you could easily change the year.
421735020
421735021
To change them is pretty straight forward, just remove the 2 torx screws. Probably easier with the throttle body off. Only a 15 minute job at most.
Probably need the auto adaption resetting using PP2000, but you might get away with plug and play.

Make sure you buy a good brand one,as I bought one the other day,and after shipping it to me,and fitting it,it was faulty even if it's brand new one,the dealer will charge 120 GBP for it,I will try to post you a pic of it,to see if you got the same model as mine or not.

Apart from the dealers where can I find APP sensor for my car as I cant seem to find APP sensors anywhere?
Also has anyone got pics of where the TPS and APP sensors are so I can locate them and find them.
Also can anyone recommend APP/TPS sensors that are compatible with my car so I can buy them online?

What years your car? KFW or KFX engine? It's something that's needed to know before anyone can say if they will fit.

The engine code can be known from your car VIN#,so according to that we can help you further more.

Yes I checked and its a KFW engine. Just wanna make sure I get the right parts and don't want to make the same flop mistake with the wrong engine oil I ordered earlier in my other thread.

According to ECP this is the one for the KFW engine
421730010
Not sure if the TU3A engine was the fly by wire throttle rather than the cable. Someone will be able to say though.
