After a two-year hiatus, the model-year 2005 Sportage returned, sharing its Elantra-based platform with the 2005 Hyundai Tucson.

Where is the camshaft sensor located exactly?

So I've purchased a new camshaft sensor and knock sensor and I've changed the knock sensor already but having problems locating the camshaft sensor to change it everywhere I look on the internet tell me a different spot.

Hi @lindsaylueschen

Here's a composite image from the 2005-2008 Kia Sportage service manual showing the location of the camshaft position sensor for both the 2.0L and 2.7L V6 engines.

@lindsaylueschen Now you've got me wondering: where did it turn out to be?
