Renault Clio 51 reg, outside temperature gauge is reading 10 DegC to high.
Annoying more than anything.
Could this just be the sensor? If so where is it and where can I get one from?

Is it always 10 degress too high? For instance, if the temperature is 15 outside, will it show 15, so it might be the first digit of the display going wrong.
The outside temperature gauge on my Elan always shows the same. Is that correct?

I think the OAT sensor is under the wing, but don't quote me.....

If the outside temp is 5 the digital display reads 15 hence if the outside temp is -4 it will read 6.
