re: external (outside) temp display...
the onboard external temp display in my console, especially after sitting for a while, is way off. for example, this evening, after sitting parked in a parking garage for ~3hrs my display read 110 degrees fahrenheit when i started it up... after about 10 minutes, it finally reset to the correct reading of 84.
do i need a new temp sensor?
car is '91 200 20v

Your temp sensor is right behind the grill.....
and being there, it catches the heat from the engine. As you drive, it cools and comes back down to a true reading. BTW, I've found mine is very accurate when underway unlike my old A4.
