Hi,
Can any body please check (with MES or similar) what the temperatures are before a cold start.
I would like the coolant temperature, air intake temperature sensor and maybe the outside air temperature (the temperature displayed on the climate control)

Why out of interest? It'll depend upon everyone's location and air temp.
 
Why? Because old cold start problem.
I know it will depend on ambient temperature, that's why i also asked for that.
I just want to see if there are any differences between the coolant sensor and the air intake sensor(which should be around ambient temperature)
 
Come on guys, please help me with this.. it only takes 2 minutes in the morning!
 
That's what I'm reading in the morning before the sun comes up, 5 degrees difference between air temp sensor and coolant sensor(coolant being the lower temp).

After the sun is up and heats the air/body of the car the difference is about 8 degrees.
 
Yup that's correct. There's a difference always between water and air temp that's normal ;)
