Isn't there a sensor(sending unit) that senses the temperature of the engine and then relays it to the gauge inside the car. If not, then how does the temperature gauge get its reading?

Behind the engine on the passenger's side, remove the intake hose and look straight down behind the motor and you should see it facing straight upwards towards you.
To change it pull the plastic clip out and pull up on the sensor, you will lose some coolant.
Just make sure not to take off the coolant resivior cap or you will loose most of your coolant.
Make sure u have The right one. the Have 1 with round plug in. And one with square one. Watch out there are 2 types of sensors either the green one or the blue one. But i would say it is usually the blue sensor because the green is mostly used for the 1.8t.
