Anyone know how to replace the Knock Sensor? A DIY Guide would be very helpful.

well i could tell you its the sensor right smack in the middle of the block behind the intake manifold... forgot what size it it but it may be a 27mm socket and just unscrew it

How do you get to it?

reach around under the intake manifold... look around and see if you have to remove upper intercooler pipe

I'm thinking you can get to it from underneath the car. looks like a tight squeeze, but if you remove the manifold brace you could probably get to it easier.

Has anyone actually done this, I don't want suggestions, I want to know how you did it.

Thanks,
