Title: How do I remove lambda from RHS, looks impossible

I take it yours is an Auto? (Had a look at mine when mine was up on the ramps having it's new exhaust fitted, and both lambda's on both banks looked easy enough to get off).

Could you get to it with an angled ring spanner??  :-/

Hi there there is a tool you need to get if its hard to get at looks like a bent spanner but it has a swivel bit in the middle, seen it in mag other week they use them alot now makes it easy to get at any bolt or nut, think they have them on ebay but cannon remember its name. :y :y

Yes auto.

Didn't even try to get a spanner in there - no room to swing it.

Might see if the error goes after fixing the other banks exhaust leak.

Just wondering if oil burning could hav caused it (stem seal problem which triggered the rebuild)
