Gen-III's only have one.
Don't forget to reset the PCM afterwards. The fuel maps will be out of
whack with a bad CTS.

Hey Jon,
For my CTS from the dealer I paid $35.00 CDN, not bad I guess.

For my 97, 318 it's the 2 wire sensor just to the right and back of the
T-stat housing. You mentioned 2 sensors here, don't tell me I have more
than 1 on my engine ;-) or is that just for the Gen II's.
