And is there any unseen things that needs to be done as well to complete this job..
Thanks

First, you are in the wrong section...you are in the CLASSIFIED Section. I am not 100% on the location on the 5th gens, but on the 4th gens, it is located UNDER the intake Manifold and I can only imagine the 5th gen is in the same place.

So, Here are 2 links for 4th gen stuff that may help you.

Pretty easy to do yourself if you have small(ish) hands. All that is needed is a knock sensor...an ebay one will do just fine.

Do you have any other codes BESIDES the knock sensor? Sometimes the KS will piggy back off another code.

 

Ryan,
I didn't notice abt the sections thanks...
No..just the knock sensor code, but I will go ahead and change all of them..ima change the pipe/muffler ( magnaflow)...Up and downstreams sensors what hell..stay ahead of the game
Thanks
Ryan

 

No sense in changing anything extra...By "Change all of them", I assume you mean the O2 sensors. If it aint broke, don't fix it. "laugh" Up to you though.

Theres an ongoing debate about the check engine light not illuminating for ONLY a KS code, So i'm glad there is ANOTHER person besides me who has had the light come on for ONLY the knock Sensor.
