INFORMATION

Component overview










Removing oxygen sensor ahead of catalytic converter

CAUTION:
Material damage can be caused by interchanged oxygen sensors.
- Change in emissions.
- Check Engine light comes on.

- Do not confuse oxygen sensors.
- Check correct assignment of oxygen sensors using the PIWIS Tester.

CAUTION:
The oxygen sensor cable can be damaged if twisted.
- Change in emissions.
- Check Engine light comes on.

- Always expose oxygen sensor cable so that the wire can turn when unscrewing or screwing in the sensor.
- Do not kink cable.







1. Disconnect cable plugs on the oxygen sensors ahead of the catalytic converter and expose cables. To do this, trace cable routing to the oxygen sensors ahead of the catalytic converter and disconnect the corresponding cable plugs. - Cable plugs for oxygen sensors










2. Remove oxygen sensors ahead of catalytic converter. -1- - Detaching oxygen sensor using open-ended wrench (oxygen sensor behind catalytic converter for cylinders 1 to 3 shown) Unscrew both oxygen sensors ahead of the catalytic converter using a ring or open-ended wrench (a/f 22) or using open-end ring wrench Nr.96-3 or open-end ring wrench Nr.98.

1. Carefully coat the thread of the oxygen sensors -1- with 000.043.207.07 and screw in by hand.







2. Route cables for oxygen sensors - Cable plugs on oxygen sensors. Connect oxygen sensors.

Subsequent work
1. Install engine compartment trim panels.
2. Secure bonnet using original bonnet stay and close it.
