Looks like the sensor is OK, but just located in the filter box in the top of the engine compartment and gets engine heat effect. Once warmed up it is about 5 degrees hotter than my 3 series temp. Probably better for air temp adjustment to engine computer, but it bugs me a bit when I expect an "outside" temp.
