That’s interesting, hufflisa! I’ve also read that overheating can damage the knock sensor. Make sure your cooling system is in good shape!

Such a bummer to deal with sensor issues; they can really affect performance. Don’t forget to check the wiring too! Damaged or corroded wires often lead to faulty readings.
I had no idea about the wiring being a potential issue! I’ve heard of people getting lucky with a simple reconnect. Sometimes it’s that easy!
Exactly! And don’t let anyone convince you to ignore those weird sounds. They usually signify something’s wrong.
I’ve been dealing with annoying knock sensor warnings. Do people really clean their engines? That seems like a hassle!
Haha, I know, right? It sounds like something you’d read in a how-to guide, but it can honestly save you a lot of trouble!

Speaking of cleaning, I’ve also thought about how old oil can make deposits worse. When did you last change yours?
Great point! Regular maintenance can really help avoid these annoying sensor issues in the long run.
