Details

Replace the knock sensor when the check-engine light appears alongside power loss or engine pinging, since it protects the engine by adjusting ignition timing and preventing damage.

• Replacement sign: Check-engine light with a fault code, power loss, higher fuel consumption, and pinging noise during acceleration.
• Approximate lifespan: Typically lasts 150,000 to 200,000 km, affected by engine heat and fuel quality.
• Install requirement: Requires a specific tightening torque and clearing of fault codes after replacement; best done by a qualified technician.
