hmm..the tps?real easy.to get to the second one you just have to move the linkage out of the way...it will rotate out of the way and you can use a 10mm socket with a extension.

edit:hmm-u must be talking of something elsethe tps only has 2 bolts to begin with....[actually,i'm not sure 'bout the t2's,i always thought they had the same tps's].anyway-good luck.

i have a S5 n/a as well, there are the 2 bolts in the side and the screw underneath.
someone, before i got the car, never put that screw back in, so all i have is the 2 in the side. i never could understand why people said it was a pain to get to
good luck man

Yup easiest way to do it is going to be taking the throttle body off. Its not that hard just four 12mm bolts then flip the sucker over, get yourself a fairly large phillips head, and have at it and party like its 1999.

Ehhhh were not talking about the 10mm bolts on the front. There is a tiny screw on the body under the throttle body. Maybe someone already took yours off, but no you dont need a new gasket if you take it off.

i have an S5 T2 TPS in my hand...there is one hole on the top...and two holes perpedicular to that underneath the bend metal plate the TPS sits on. these are what hold it on and i didn't need to remove the throttle body...
DCmina: T2 or n/a?
