Oxygen Sensors
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Ring spanner 7-piece set for oxygen sensor (3337)
Removing
• During installation, reinstall all heat insulation sleeves and heat shields at the same locations.
• All cable ties opened or cut during engine removal must be reinstalled at the same locations during installation.
- Remove engine.
- Leave engine with transmission installed on the scissor lift platform (VAS 6131).
- Remove right oxygen sensor connection heat shield from transmission - arrows -.
- Remove affected oxygen sensor electrical connector from bracket on transmission.

Installing
Installation is in reverse order of removal, note the following:
• New oxygen sensors are coated with assembly paste; the paste must not get into slots of oxygen sensor body.
• For a used oxygen sensor, only coat threads with hot bolt paste. This paste must not come into contact with sensor slots. Hot bolt paste.
• Electrical wire of oxygen sensor must always be secured in the same position when installing so that contact with the exhaust pipe is avoided.
- Install engine.
