Hi guys. This question will help me with my O2 sensor install. I found a guide and it seems pretty straight forward with perhaps not even moving the steering rack although some people do remove the the one Torx and one more bolt to create a little more room to reach in. I am wondering, is there anything in the way preventing me from having the same access to the downpipes where the pre cat O2 sensors are installed?

Sounds like you have a N54 or N55 car because you mentioned downpipes. (Do diesels have downpipes? I don’t even know lol)

You should post this question in the correct engine forum and I bet you get the answers you need.

N54, ya. Just figured someone who has seen suspension or familiar with the diff between rwd/xi/convertible would have insight into removal to access. I did post about actual code and issue but the title isn't specific and I didn't want to post there and get flamed for asking the same question even though they are related but not the same lol.
