Alright guys,


I changed the knock sensor and I wired it all up after the engine light was still on for it.


I had the engine light still on, and my car no longer throttles up and down in RPM.

BUT! My car has been driving like crap. AND MY INSPECTION is THIS MONTH!

I wasn't going to worry about it until inspection time because the whole thing cost me a dent in my wallet.


SO! I replaced my knock sensor, and I checked my engine codes. I had a BUNCH OF THEM! 8!

SO I unplugged the battery and kept driving, it cleared all but ONE!

p0325 - Knock sensor!

I just replaced the knock sensor?! Why does it say this code, and why does my car still run like ****? Wired wrong? idk???

What should I do, what should I check?

If I can get this (and my brakes) fixed, I can go do my inspection!

Check that you don't have a leak on the intake manifold.

I've read about issues with aftermarket knock sensors????

NEW POST! Go here instead.


OK, So I had my Air Intake tube cut when the mechanic that helped me out installed the knock sensor. He was kinda ghetto and just used Gorilla Glue branded tape to patch that up. It could be that isn't exactly "Sealing" any leaks.

I'm going to replace that first and see if that works.

If that doesn't, I'll try replacing the knock sensor again.

Also, take a look at this: (Could it be wiring/the hole in the other pic?)
