The difference in resistance is that it probably got warm from holding it in your hand, as the sensor heats up, the resistance changes.
...I will also have to see that connector on the door, sometimes it shows the right temperature quite normally and after some time it starts to count down with a big minus and at the end a line appears on the display, and only lines appear during the day.

There should be an O ring sealing the hinge connector, but if the conector has been parted previously it's possible the O ring is displaced, allowing water in.
Electric window and central locking faults can sometimes be attributed to that connector.

Regarding the Climate Control operation, please see attached information.
It states that the selected temperature is retained after Ign off, but doesn't say how that is achieved, whether by backup power, or NvRam.
The default is 22c, so anything other than that has been stored.

...for now I'm just collecting parts, the weather is still bad, as soon as the weather gets warmer, the installation will follow.

...always, on all models, grease must be added for lubrication, very little is added during assembly.

That's a healthy selection of new parts, the car should be like new once done.

I'm interested as to which brand of suspension arm compliance bushes you have purchased, as often they don't fit the spigot very well, they tend to be too loose.
Can you please accurately measure the inside bush diameter

..the measurements are the same on all 4 silen blocks, the blocks are Febi brand.

I will see when I install them if the measurement is good.

19.?? mm
Any chance of an image of the complete vernier scale.
Also can you please measure the wishbone.



They should be an interference fit with the wishbone stub.

Your car is a series 2 and usually the new bushes don't seem to fit the Series 1 wishbones and there are two part numbers for bushes, but all suppliers cross reference them to the same supplied item.
I'm trying to see if the wishbones themselves changed diameter, hence the later bushes only fit later wishbones.

When I take everything apart I will see if they fit, if they are not the same I will replace them.

..the rear disks also arrived, now everything is complete.

I noticed that when I turn the steering wheel left and right, at normal speed, the servo reacts well, the steering wheel goes smoothly, but when I turn quickly to the left, the steering wheel is much harder to turn to the right, as if there is no servo, I don't know if it is due to the pump or the old oil.
