It looked like a newish car to me cause there isnt any rusty bolts.

they are a total nightmare, on the 2 I've had grief with, both were 1997 audi A4's I had to take the entire leg/hub etc off so I could get it all in a vice and smash the seized in bolts out using a firking great big hammer.

If the top suspension arms are getting renewed a good dose of heat may help get the bolts out.

I remember replacing a front spring on my mates passat years ago and this had the same suspension set up as this. Them top arms were a nightmare to get out. Im sure I struggled to get the top arm back bolts out. It was about 6 years ago when I did it so my memory isn't the best.

Car is designed around the engine right as fuck supposed to drop engine box suspension etc but you don't need to!

Where is the sensor actually located then?

richard youll

At the very back of the engine on the passenger side bank behind the head in a water pipe
