Hi, the outside temperature displayed on my cockpit is very slow in responding to the actual changes outside. For example one morning I picked the car from the underground garage and it was 21 °C, and it got stuck there for 15 min before displaying the real outside temp which was much higher.
Anyone having the same problem?

Funny enough I had a similar experience last week after my cars first minor service. The outside temp gauge was saying 16°C when it was definitely above 20°C outside and it took some time to go up. The car was washed so I put it down to maybe the sensor being wet but I'll keep an eye out to see if it continues.

I can confirm this as well, it takes a lot of time to realize real outside temp.

Same here.
I had the same issue in my GLA before the qashqai.
