Kadjar Oil Temperature Sensor Issue

Diagnostics specifically mentioned the engine oil temperature sensor. The error code was related to implausible signal from the sensor. The oil level is normal, I check it regularly. Could the sensor be faulty even with a normal oil level?

An implausible signal points pretty strongly to the sensor itself or its wiring. It's hard to say definitively without hands-on testing, but I would advise against driving it too much like that. I ended up taking mine to a workshop, and after replacement, no more issues.

Based on your experience and the diagnostic results, I will schedule an appointment with a reputable workshop to have the engine oil temperature sensor and its connections inspected. The estimated repair cost of 95€ seems reasonable.

I had similar symptoms on my Kadjar, though I don't know if it was exactly the temperature sensor. The erratic oil pressure light, especially, sounds familiar. Did the diagnostics specifically point to the sensor, or did it just show a generic error code? Have you checked the oil level to rule that out?
