Was looking at pulling out the front grills yesturday and noticed a small sensor attached to the bottom front left or right (depends what way you are looking at the car) grill.

Does anyone know what this is for???

Thanks,

Matty

Is that monitoring it for the benefit of the engine or another unit?

For fun, shows you the temperature of the outside world so you feel better about your air con

Well, depends what it is actually for, but the outside temp shows on that. Whether that sensor is for the outside temp... that's a different qn (the original one)
