Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Intake Air Temp reading 6°F too high. Is this a problem?

SouthArk370Z · 11-08-2013, 11:16 PM

The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) on my Z is reading about 6°F too high. I let the car cool overnight with the hood open and then compared IAT, ambient temp on the dash, and two digital thermometers. Both DTs and the dash said 61°F; the IAT, using a ScanGuageII, was 67°F.

Will this cause any problems?

I can't find an OBD Mode/PID for bank 2 IAT. Would swapping MAFs (to see if the temp sensor in bank 2 is reading closer) cause any harm?

Car is an '09 Touring 7AT. DD with 21K miles.
