TWS ..Thanks a lot for the clarification, do you think it controls the humidity in the climate control system ???

It must be part of the recirculation with pollution and humidity sensing function:

- Press the AUTO button briefly to activate timed recirculation. The AUTO LED will illuminate. The system automatically selects fresh and recirculated air dependent on pollution and cabin humidity.

I know this thread is old but I have one of the these in mine and found the part number for the replacement from this thread, those who have on of these in their car, have you ever taken the cover off and if so how did you do it. I cannot see a way and don't want to take it in to be replaced when price of the part is so little.

Is it the ambient volume sensor - you know, the thingy that senses the rising volume you get when increasing speed (tyres, wind etc) and increases the radio volume the faster you go?

It looks like the box in the image for the air quality control sensor... so I am assuming it is but I am unsure. Have only just noticed it in the car and saw it was cracked
