I know this thread is about you going abroad and making most of us envious and all that, but have you considered investing in a bluetooth OBD dongle? I used mine 2 weeks ago to detect a fault code in our RAV4 (using my Android phone as the receiver). It also reads all "stored codes" too (ie, those that faults that have been detected previously but since self-cleared). It might/would tell you if there was a faulty sensor
