Does anyone know where the sensor for the outside temperature gauge is located? My IS300's temp is accurate in some ways. But if I knew it's location I might be able to rationalize its wierd readings somtimes. My A4 and IS300 can both be sitting in the garage. And at startup, they read drastically different temps. However after a short drive, they come to just a degree or two of one another. So like I said, if I knew the sensors location, I might be able to make sense of it. My A4 is the more accurate(sensible) of the two. The IS300 gets really high readings after being parked for a while. I'm thinking it may be located close to the ground and picking up some of the asphault temp. Who knows???

My temp sensor is usually way off. On a regular 90 day in Dallas it reads almost to 100. A waste of space if you ask me.

It may be for you.
For me, it is one of the most important gauges the car has during fall/spring time.
When the summer tires are on, I pay very close attention as to how close outside temp gets to 32.
