This may seem a stupid question but what is the small circular grill like thing on the LHS of the central dashboard/control panel of my P38. Is it the temperature "sniffer" for the heating?

Yes, it controls the ambient temp when the HVAC is set to AUTO.

Clean out the fluff with a vac to maintain accurate readings.

Oh, BTW, please put your location in you id so that we can help you with better answers based upon location and model of vehicle.

Ditto. It is very well worth pulling yoru dash apart to clean that bugger. There is a small fany that draws air into the sensor. Naturally this also draws in Cocker Spaniel hair, balding owner hair , trail dust ans worst of all, moisture. This makes for a nice collection of goo and "fluff" that can eventually render the fan stuck and the sensor useless. Once I cleaned mine out the first time I found a quick spray with compressed air each oil change keeps it nice and clean.
