Kadjar charge air temperature sensor error

Hi, I have a 2022 Renault Kadjar diesel with 209082 km. The check engine light came on, and the engine power is reduced. I'm also hearing a whistling noise when I accelerate. The error memory shows a charge air temperature sensor error. I've checked the obvious stuff, but no luck. Any ideas?

I had something similar with my Kadjar. Same symptoms, check engine light and all. Turned out to be a defective cable or plug connection to the charge air temperature sensor. Have you checked those specifically?

Thanks for the info. Where exactly is that sensor located, and is it easy to access the cable and plug connection myself?

Honestly, I'm not 100% sure where it is on the Kadjar, and I wouldn't recommend messing with it too much unless you're confident. I just took mine to a workshop. It's likely the same issue, and they should be able to diagnose and fix it quickly.

Thanks. I took it to the shop, and you were right. Defective plug connection on the charge air temperature sensor. Cost me 95€ to get it sorted. Appreciate the help!
