Title: Knock sensor
Post by: golfmk2boy on 19 September 2006, 12:46

Hi,

Just wondering if there is a knock sensor on 8v digifant engines, and if so, does this adjust the ECU?.

I think there is one on my engine.

Yes, there is a knock sensor !
But if you have pinking, get the car tuned properly first if you haven't already as this may solve it. Check RubJ's Digifant tuning guide.

if you replace the knock sensor, make sure you do it up to exactly the right torque using a wrench, otherwise it either wont work, or you'll break it!
