Questions about pulling engine....

I want to pull my engine out without cutting any wires.
Can I do this?
If I can, How do I?

I am pulling a bad N/A to put in a rebuilt N/A... Both are from S4 model.

A link would be helpful seeing as how I searched and couldnt find one.

Thanks alot guys (and girls).

Nothing needs to be damaged when pulling a motor. You just unplug all the sensors and such then move the wiring harness to the side. here is a link for the FSM in the FAQ's.

You should never have to cut any wires when pulling an engine, from any car.

Anyway, lift up the passenger side carpet, remove the kick plate that covers the ECU, unplug the emissions harness (2 plugs at the ECU itself, 2 or 3 more to the right), push it through the firewall, coil it on top of the engine, pull the engine out with the harness still connected.

Never have to cut any wires. Maybe some zipties but no other cutting is required.
