It's located at the front of the engine just behind the engine oil filter. It's an easy replacement and in some way you can get it for as low as $70. But keep in mind to avoid cheap parts. Good luck.

crank positioning sensor and engine speed sensor are they the same. Advance auto shows the ESS as a small sensor that a bolt goes thru it to mount

Speed sensor is VW's official terminology used in the Bentley manuals; crank position sensor generic USA terminology.. afaik, the same thing.
