Hi all, i recently got an error code on vag com saying that the G62 sensor was faulty, basically the top error of these 2. I changed what i thought was the sensor which is just behind the throttle body. The car is an A3 03 plate 2.0 tdi. Can anyone confirm if the sensor i changed sounds like the correct one? Thanks in advance.
