Thinking about the function of the YAW rate sensor, I would think it would be where you mentioned, somewhere around the gear shift as I would think it would need to be on the centre line of the vehicle. As the rear seat seems to of been mentioned by others you could try under the plastic cover immediatly behind the rear seat, access to which can be gainned from inside the boot.

I have a malfunctioning Yaw Rate Sensor that is randomly engaging my brakes while driving. I pulled the codes and everything is pointing toward the sensor. The rub here is that the sensor is $800. I was told by a tech that if i remove the sensor the system will simply disengage and I wont have TCS or ESP/BAS. The ABS will be left in tact. I noticed that someone posted that the location of the Yaw Rate Sensor is under the passenger seat (front). I just wanted to confirm, has anyone ever replaced this part DIY? Thanks again everyone!
