Default where is the engine coolant temp sensor in my 01 A4 V6?

my 2001 A4 V6 30v quattro engine doesnt look like this one here : http://www.audiworld.com/tech/eng47.shtml

and this one is for a 98 A4 v6 quattro : http://www.audiworld.com/tech/eng54.shtml

Can someone help me figure out where the ECTS is in my car? is it in the same location as the 98?

if not in the same place... anybody knows the steps to replace it?

thanks much!

Remove the flexible intake pipe above the sensor. There is a u shaped clip holding the sensor in. Slide the clip completely out. Remove the sensor. Make sure the o ring isnt stuck in the housing. Push new sensor with o ring in. Slide clip in. Install flex pipe.
