Continuously Variable Valve Lift Oil Temperature Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
G11718889

The continuously variable valve lift oil temperature sensor is mounted in a threaded hole in the front side of the continuously variable valve lift assembly. The continuously variable valve lift assembly oil temperature sensor is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) type sensor. The NTC sensor allows the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to determine the oil temperature.

The sensor has two pin connector which provide a temperature signal input to the PCM and a ground connection. This information is used by the PCM to determine oil viscosity and allows accurate continuously variable valve lift solenoid switching time compensation.
