Default ECT sensor removal...

or more accurately, removal of the wiring harness on top.. never having done this I don't want to break anything...

<img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/6886/ect.jpg">

I'm assuming I do something with the little tab in the bottom right of the picture, but that is angled back towards the block so it's tuff to get anything in there ? help anyone ?

As well, I'm assuming it's normal for a bit of oil to be in the Y-pipe... very slight coat on the bottom of the tube on the way to the airbox ?

Thanks again to all that reply.

Default pull the C clip (to the left all the way out) and remove the sensor with wiring

when you pull it up you'll see how it's clipped in .. al the clips work the same way , you will figure it out when you take a better look at it.
