Hi all!

My CEL is giving me a code 22.... Knock Sensor (L/H) Need to replace?
If anyone has a "good" used one to spare...?

PM me if you do!
Regards

Given what a pain the knock sensors are to replace, it's highly unlikely you're going to find used ones. Even if you do, you'll have no idea how long they'll last before they go bad - especially given the temperature and vibration they see based on where they are installed on top of the engine. You're going to be much better off just buying new ones. I've got pictures in my locker when I replaced both sensors last Winter (without removing the intake manifold)

Yes it will. I would recommend replacing in pairs to avoid the hassle.

Knock sensors are supposed to retard timing when they detect knocks.
A bad knock sensor may detect extra (false) knocks and retard timing more than necessary.
