Noone who can help me with the P0070 fault code. Is it a temperature sensor on the engine, which cause the fault code or what shall I do to fix the problem.

Thats the black cone looking sensor mounted to the inside of the bumper. It does exactly that. Reads outside air temps. The only thing its used for is the degree readout on the tach. Super easy fix.
