yes there are 2. 1 is located infront of the turbo on the inlet manifold and the other in the opposite corner of the manifold.

 

They're a pain in the hole. Best bet is to get a throttle position sensor to replace the TGV sensor if its definately fecked. Check the wiring, cause ye've got the P1096 code. Think its 4V if yer checkin the wires with a meter - i'd double check that wi the Jolly Green Monster though.
