Hi.. just wondering if anyone can help me , I had a diagnostic code reader plugged in and its telling me knock sensor. ! My engine management light comes on when I put my foot down and get it to spin. Any answers will be appreciated.

Probably find an answer in there.

It looks like a doughnut shape with a bolt through the middle, if I remember correctly they're positioned on the back of the engine, easier accessed from under the vehicle between cylinders.

Maybe one of the top members on here can help you further but at least you got a reply

You might have a miss fire and that is what your knock sensor is picking up that could be caused by a spark plug fault or coil pack fault

it turns out the management light was on as the engine had the wrong wiring i.e engine year and wiring loom were different years! was fixed within 10minutes of working that out LOL!
