Default Coolant leak and 1296 code

Folks,

My TT is a 225 and has 155,000 miles on her...Well cared for.

I just discovered a coolant leak on a strange looking valve type thingy right behind the radiator at the top passenger side. It has been pissing on my driveway.

I also just had the 1296 code come in...coolant temp sensor.

1) can someone tell me what that thing is?

2) any best guesses as to what to change out?

Thanks friends,

wyaTT
