Air Quality Sensor location

Post by Busdriver947 »

Hi all,

Have a 2011 2.0 140 HP GT diesel scirocco. Can someone give me a heads up where I’d find the Air Quality Sensor which has thrown up a fault. From looking online I thought it was under the right hand side scuttle panel when looking in from the front of the car. Nothing that resembles the new sensor to be seen.

Thanks for your help,

Nigel

You're pretty much there. Under the passenger side plenum chamber cover, there is second cover that diverts water away from the air intake grille. The air quality sensor is mounted on a bracket attached to the air intake grille
