Hi all.
Im wanting to change my lambda sensor but the cat heat shield makes it difficult to get a spanner on it.
It doesnt seem to want to come out of the top or from the bottom.
Whats the trick?.
Thanks.
 
I found i had to take the bumper and radiator off. Actually doesn't take too long and makes it easy.

I was taking the whole manifold off to replace core plugs and replacing the steel water pipe too.

Was easier on the cinquecento!

Ouch.
Think i might be looking at either making or buying a 22mm Lambda socket if thats the only way to remove the shield.
