[A8] Front right oxygen sensor

[Rich, Jack]

I couldn't find anything on Audipages on oxygen sensors.

The question was *how to get at* the sensor, not what to use on it.

Not being familiar with the A8, my guess is that some combination of O2
sensor
socket, extensions, and universal joint(s) should be able to get to it.

It might be wise to soak the O2 sensor in PB Blaster or some such for a few
days
before trying, as the slit in the O2 sensor socket might be too weak to
break
free a frozen O2 sensor.
