Yes it does apologies for a red herring - i should of checked

Looking at your picture, I believe the sensor is missing, on mine it's attached to this bracket:

It's possible, that it is the little yellow sensor below the bracket in the screenshot - and somebody has removed it from the housing which attaches to the bracket I have highlighted

Has anyone had success removing the pressure tube. I can't seem to clear it, well i can only get so far with a rod down the tube, so I assume its still blocked.
Might buy a new tube and replace if i could get to the back of the manifold, maybe from underneath?

I too am trying to unblock mine. I've ordered a bike gear cable to give it a go as previously suggested.

Mine currently has all the Chassis control system faults along with all the other faults that partner it. OBD said there was a fault on the Engine Pressure Sensor, so fingers crossed the unblocking works.

Any tips from those that have done it? Were you simply clamping on end to a drill to help work it down?

My garage owning mate, told me he had some special tools to get to it, but, he was reluctant to force it, because if he broke it, it would need the turbo removing, in order to replace the pipe at the manifold end. He'd been quoted something ridiculous like £180 JUST for the replacement pipe - so he didn't remove it.

Hi guys, Any one got closer to this issue fixed? - I was thinking about Bell ad engine cleaner, but not sure if it will clean that part of the engine.. seems like a multiple cause problem?

I had a small fault on on gluw plug long time ago, when nissan had it in for service, I said they should leave it, as it was running fine. now this issue has also been going on for some months and I start to be annoyed, however car is still going without problem, and it seems like if I give it full throttle the faults goes away in 3 or 4th gear. how ever it also seems to come up (mostly) when going to 3rd or 4th. ..on the pictue it came in 2nd gear

Good luck and thanks for inputs!

I see I missed a few post - however seems like the bike cable is the fix nice - BUT where does all the soot end up I am wondering?

I've recently had this problem on my 61 plate ntec 15dci... first the esp lights coming on then the red engine management light.
I managed to remove the pipe to clean it thoroughly which was totally blocked, it wasn't the easiest of job but after refitting the esp lights were still on so it didn't resolve my issue.
