Is there a temperature sensor on my Mini Cooper?
Please try again later. This video will share my experience diagnosing a 2nd Generation 2007 to 2013 MINI Cooper S with fault code P0118 BMW code 2F22 Engine Temperature Signal not plausible. My diagnostic led me to replacing the thermostat housing which has a built in thermostat housing sensor, and the engine coolant temperature sensor.
Is it easy to replace an intake air temperature sensor?
As you can see, replacing an intake air temperature sensor is a pretty straightforward process that most can manage with very few materials. Of course, if you’d rather have someone else do the dirty work for you, the team of certified mechanics at YourMechanic offers professional intake air temperature sensor replacement.

What is the code for an air temperature sensor?
P1193 is the code for a faulty inlet air temperature sensor, also known as the intake air temperature sensor. It may be possible that there is an issue with the intake air temperature sensor or with the sensor circuit….
How does the intake temperature sensor work on a Mini Cooper?
Signal voltage fluctuates depending on manifold pressure. Approximately 0.5 to 4.5 V corresponds to a boost pressure from 20 kPa (0.2 bar) to 250 kPa (2.5 bar). The intake temperature sensor contains a temperature-dependent resistor that is mounted into the charge air duct and measures the temperature of the intake air.
How to check engine pressure in a Mini Cooper?
A quick test of both the manifold and boost pressure sensors is to check the sensor reading with the key on engine off. Using a MINI scan tool, the reading should be about equal, as they are both reading ambient pressure. The intake temp sensor can be tested in a similar way using the coolant sensor as a comparison.

How does the DME work on a Mini Cooper?
The DME compares a stored MAP with sensor data to determine fuel delivery. The resistance changes dependent on temperature from 167 k Ohms to 150 Ohms, corresponding to a temperature from -40°C to 130°C. A quick test of both the manifold and boost pressure sensors is to check the sensor reading with the key on engine off.
