Drill a small hole in the stuck sensor with a 1/8” bit about 1/4”and use a 2” drywall screw then use a claw hammer to pull it,super easy,you went way over board.The water pump can stay put.
Thank you for breaking that down I've watched all the videos and yours is comprehendible for a blonde female who has little to no experience turning wrenches.
Same truck, I had timing cover off and sensor barely drove out with hammer! Some are worst than others. Best bet is to replace timing cover and sensor, keep your sanity.
I was chasing a gremlin on my daily, and was already over budget, so I was eying to do it on the cheap. Funny enough I ended up having to replace the timing cover in the end anyway, as that was the problem.
I have a motor apart and Im just washing the front cover where the angle sensor is ... It will not come out .. The Plastic must Swell inside the engine ? I pitty anyone who has to change one .. Mine is working so I am tempted to just silicone it in (around the 2mn I can get it out) BUT I might just buy a new one and destroy this one, because I pitty the next person when or if it fails. This Australian R8 09 model ute will be For sale when engine is rebuilt. So I should save my $$'s .. but I feel for the next owner .. Now I see the trouble it takes to change .. Guess thats why I'm not a rich man ... Nice vid 👍
Thanks for the video. Have a stuck sensor also and hoping I don't have to tear things down and further, but if I do it's good to see one way of doing it
Very helpful thank you

I tried everything I could think of, that thing didn’t NOT wanna come out. I wish you the best of luck though!
Your other lines are oil cooler lines. That's engine oil. Good video 📹 👍
When I pulled the lines red fluid came out of all four, so I wonder if it’s an oversized trans cooler that was part of the “Max Trailering Package”
@@busch6062well by your oil filter is 2 lines for oil cooler follow those lines. But after 2 yrs I’m sure you figured it out already.
This guy looks like my brother
Did u push it through
Yeah, I cut it off and pushed it through with my thumb. Be careful to grab it with your fingers, or you might end up having to pull your timing cover
