2000 A6 4.2: B2S1 O2 sensor removal
I am stuck.
I can't figure out a way to remove the B2 S1 (driver side, upstream) O2 sensor. Space is SO tight, worse than anything I have seen before (2.7T for example).
Need tips on how to get it out (have code).
Car on jacks.
ANY suggestions?

I have not done that particular sensor, but IIRC there have been multiple discussion of removing difficult 02 sensors from the top with a series of taped-together extensions and swivel joints.
STFA more.

The driver's side sensor is very easy compared to the pass side. Just remove the coolant tank and the sensor is straight down.
Having one of these makes it easy:

The pass side sensor I have tried twice to remove and haven't been able to get it yet. Will be giving it another go next month when I do the oil change.
