ive heard mixed messages about people talking their knock sensor install.....is it really true someone can do it in 45 min or is it true that it does take a couple good hours plus a few cuts on the hand.....i looked at where the KS is located and i couldnt fit my hand in there at all.....what are the tools needed to take out the old one and is it even worth doing it myself????


suggestions and feedback pleaseee....

 

Find some one with smaller hands. If somebody can fit their hand in there it will take far less than 45min. There is a way to do it taping the bolt to the end of the socket, and I'm sure someone will explain this better.

 

It took me under 20 minutes. 1/4 driver , extention, and flex joint thing (whatever).
If you have a telescoping magnet it may help in removing and installing the bolt.
good luck

Dude I can do a KS install in 30 mins or less..

Get the tools..

12mm swivel socket.
9" extension bar
Good quality socket wrench and pop the thing comes off. Stick your hand down there pull it out and put the new one in. Also just make sure you line it up right.

Eazy Eazy job bro.

Dont let the dealer sucker you into doing it for you.

30 mins or less is very possible. Tip: Try squeezing your LEFT hand down in there. Your right will never fit unless your a midget or you sucker a child with small hands into doing it. Very easy job.

just by the tools and youll do it like in 20 minuts
