Which sensor measures intake air temp on R56?

I have an error code P110F that may relate to intake air temperature. Is there a separate sensor for intake temp? Or is the data taken from the MAF or the ambient air temp sensor? Does anyone know?

Also, does anyone know where the coolant temperature sensor is?

The intake air temperature sensor should be the same sensor that measures ambient air temp, and that one is located somewhere in the lower front bumper near the fog lights. If you're referring to the post intercooler charge-air temp that's a different story...

Just wanted to clarify. The intake air temperature sensor is not the same as the ambient air temperature sensor. The ambient air temp sensor is on the lower front bumper. The MAF does not measure intake air temp because it is before the IC. The air intake temp sensor is after the IC, on the hard pipe on the passenger side.

Thanks, Slinger. So that's it on top of the pipe? Is the diagram from OEM.com? I was looking for a diagram there but didn't find it.
