P007E
Charge Air Cooler Temperature Sensor Circuit Intermittent/Erratic Bank 1
Intermittent dropouts or noise on the charge air cooler temperature sensor signal on bank 1. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
