I'm getting an intermittent fault on G235 (scanned with VCDS), the temp sensor before the turbo. Glow plug light comes up and the check engine/workshop message comes up.

VCDS is reading 1000/1024 degs. Fairly sure this is not the actual temperature but the sensor has failed. Weird though it only happens when I put my foot down, but you can see the other 2 temp sensors aren't going very high.

So yeah just wondering if anyone has replaced one before. The part number is 03L 906 088 BS and its listed at around $200 in ETKA. I wonder if any other part numbers are compatible.
