P011DCharge Air Cooler Temperature/Intake Air Temperature Correlation Bank 2
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- This is the bank 2 counterpart of P011C and only exists on engines with two separate intake paths, each with its own charge air cooler temperature sensor and intake air temperature sensor – for example V engines with twin turbochargers and separate charge air coolers. After a long standstill both bank 2 sensors should read nearly the same; if they disagree at start-up, without either showing a circuit fault, P011D is set. The code does not identify which sensor is wrong. No manufacturer document using exactly this code was found; the check follows the same principle Ford uses for bank 1 after 6 hours, with a preheater suspending it.
- What you may notice
- Check engine light on
- Usually no change in driving
- Code often returns only after an overnight soak
- Likely causes
- LikelyBank 2 charge air cooler temperature sensor drifting, oily or stuck
- PossibleBank 2 intake air temperature sensor drifting
- PossibleContact resistance at connector or ground
- RareUndetected preheating or uneven cooling
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
- Repair
- Medium · Often possible to do yourself.Typical cost: €50 – €350
