Hi,
If the outside temp is reading wrong you will require a new sensor approx. 10gbp, the pins on the sensor where the car loom plugs in normally corrode causing inaccurrate readings and operation, you could try cleaning them but due to the construction and the gauge of the pins its very awkward and not very successfull i replaced mine as it was so cheap.

Mine sits in the number plate surround. :)

Yes that might be so, but the O/P's car is a 202 C class, and on the c class it is adjacent too the lower Left Hand side bumper grill.
