I have 98,600 on my 95 se i have no ks codes or cel's. I found a good deal on a ks so should i replace it? Even though i have no codes couldn't it still be faulty in a way.

thanks

 

does anybody know?

 

IF it's a good deal, buy it. You don't necessarily have to replace it right away, but it will go bad eventually.

 

do you exhibit symptoms of random power loss intermittently?its not throwing a code so its functional, but if you feel sometimes the performance is hindered and other times its not it could be malfunctioning, but if you havent changed it in the 90K+ miles, you might as well do it , if you get it for like 50-60$ new, id just do it

 

'98 SE w/ close to 105K on mine, am I fair game for a new Knock Sensor as well?

 

If its cheap enough, and you have the cash, buy it. Install it and then test the old one. If its bad toss it. If its good then you have a spare for future use or you could selll it.

 

I would do what FLAVOR247 said. I think I heard that they may even just get lazy or weak after a while and not throw any code. If you follow these instructions and you have small hands, or a girlfriend or something with small hands, it will only take like 15 minutes:

That site also has some good info in general about the sensor.

 

I have 40k miles and no coes or knocking, but my car is missing power. Do you think i need to gt a new one? Maxina, is this deal your getting just for yourself, or can others get it for the price also?

 

Sorry I am getting it from a fellow orger.
