You probably live in another country. I didnt know VW made 2.3L engines. Sorry lol
Usually is attached on the front side facing you. Just below the intake manifold. Is a round thing with a bolt in the middle and it has a cable attached to it.
Let me know if u find it.

Your welcome!! Did you look on the back of the engine or the sides??
I was doing some research and i saw that those MK4 models have two Knock sensors. I'm not sure which one your having the problem with. Did you get like a check engine light??

Those are more modern... That's your knock sensor.
