IAT over 100C read by Kiwi but car running ok!
Dear all,
Got my 2002 C32 without mod and bought also a Kiwi Wifi OBD reader. Do the real time gauges monitoring and found that IAT is around 100-110C, ECT around 85C at a highway running. The boost stool come with normal and car performance is still good.
Understand that SC will cut out by ECU if IAT is over 93C but I m not now. just want to know is the problem with the Kiwi detection or what!?
Thanks

Confirmed that is degrees C not F), and I read it from real time In. Temp.
There is no fault code, everything is normal, where is the intake temp sensor?

below the throttle body. no need to remove the s/c. remove the y pipe for the intakes. below that is the y pipe for the manis. you can see the iat sensor. squeeze the clips and wiggle it out then remove the plug

That's way to high, I monitor my OBD2 IAT's via Dashdaq and they read ~45 degrees C during cruising. The hottest they get at WOT is ~70ish degrees. There's def something wrong and I'm surprized your S/C hasn't shut off as it's supposed to disengage at 93 degrees C.
