Don't know if it makes any difference or not, but are you manual or A4??

I think the VSS on the auto is on the drivers side of the tail on the trans. Shud be a darkgrn/wht wire. You'll probably get some fluid out when you pull the unit.

I think the manual VSS is in the same area as the A4, but not sure?

FWIW on my 90 6spd its on the driver's aside down towards the tail section. It looks tight up there too....maybe the exh has to come down to work comfortably.

Remove electrical connection, 1 bolt, sensor & "O" ring. Some fluid will come out so be ready with a suitable contained.
