Chris 0 Posted March 11, 2008 where is the rear knock sensor located? on the back of the engine i know :) but where? anyone got a happy snappy photo so i can see? will it make a massive difference if i run the engine without it for awhile? lasty, where would be the best place to get one from? or does someone on here have a spare possibly? cheers, chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 0 Posted March 11, 2008 cheesewire posted this up for me not long ago, ''Rear knock sensor. It should be clipped to the bracket on top of the rear engine mount, next to the Lambda plug. At the back of the block you'll see the knock sensor and loom, under the manifold for cyls 1, 2 & 3.'' i have nothing there so not quite sure what ive got to get, any photos would be a massive help so i can see what im meant to be looking at Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
12 DEG BEN 0 Posted March 11, 2008 The rear knock sensor bolts to this hole here and I think I have a spare one kicking around. I will have a look around for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted March 11, 2008 Not easy to reach then, Can you access it from underneath the car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

12 DEG BEN 0 Posted March 11, 2008 Easiest way of working on it is removing the airbox and maf, rest one the block and stick your arms round the thing like your cuddling it. There is very little room under the rear of the engine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
