Latest info on Check-Engine/Test-Pipe
Well some of you might know I am still riding on a cell from my ecode test-pipe.
Car= 1999.5 1.8T/Quattro/Manual
Well I went my best-friends cousing shop and ask them to take a look at tpipe.
Ok, so normally you plug in Foulers to "post cat" then plug in 02
Well I ran into a problem... My test-pipe is installed so.... I removed the 02 plugged in anti-fouler then "tried" to plug back in my 02....
Problem
Only one thing can fit if I try do to both I end up hitting my tranny and cannot screw it in. Which is wierd because alot of guys have no problems.
Bottom line guys... It's either plug in Fouler or plug in 02. Both combined are too long and hit the transmission.
Ideas?

RE: Latest info on Check-Engine/Test-Pipe
how do you mean it is not fitting exactly?
like if it was screwed in before you bolted down the TP the sensor would clear? basically you can't get the sensor's threads lined up to screw it in?
or there is no way at all that even if you got the threads lined up it would clear the transmission?

I guess the best analogy I can give is... "Trying to walk through a Hallway with you hold a broom Horizontally "
or there is no way at all that even if you got the threads lined up it would clear the transmission?
(Nope if I try and screw the 02 into the fouler IT DOES NOT FIT) Transmission is in the way.
