Hi Kris;

I had a similar problem getting a rear ABS sensor out of my '94 S4. I soaked it well with Walther Bolt-Out and pried it out using a screwdriver on each side to "walk" it out. Had to put successively larger shims under the screwdrivers as it came out. I don't know if your '96 uses the same sensors, but that's what worked for me.
I cleaned up the sensor and the expanded metal retaining sleeve and coated it well with antiseize compound when I re-installed it.
