    while we are talking about this part of the motor...

    you experienced guys-
    im throwing a knock sensor code, ive had multiple people look at it to try to find the sensor...the consensus seems to be that it is under the intake manifold. did you guys find this sensor? is their any way to get to it without taking 1/2 of my VX apart???

    good to know, im just tryin to figure out this thing with my idle.. its not bad, never stalled or anything just kinda strange... it got better after seafoam and a tank full of fuel system treatment.. thinking spark plugs are next since mine have almost 84k on them anyway

    Unfortunately, your concensus is correct. It's under the common chamber of the intake mainfold.
