Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor 1/2 Correlation (Bank 2)

EGT sensors 1 and 3 on bank 2 disagree by more than the allowed tolerance — one is reading off, or there is a real temperature gradient that exceeds the calibrated map (e.g. from a leaking exhaust joint between the two locations).

Affected components

  • Exhaust gas temperature sensor

Common causes

  • High likelihood: One EGT sensor drifts
