Galaxy Tdi -what Is This Sensor Called?

[Jazzman]

I think I have a fault with a sensor attached to a thick pipe on the right hand side of the engine parallel/opposite side to the MAF sensor on a similar think solid plastic black pipe. It has 2 screws holding onto the pipe and a clip for the wiring. My turbo is more off than on currently, and removing this sensor replictes the fault immediately. Please will someone let me know what this sensor is. thanks.

Thanks Faz! Can anyone else confirm that it is the intake temperature sensor?
