Great video Cody. I just removed mine today. I have big hands and was able to get my left hand behind the manifold and my right hand from below. For those reading this comment, you will need a deep 27MM socket, one that more than likely you will not have as it is not common. Harbor Freight has one for $4.76 (lucky I have one 1 mile from my house and I was able to get it today). The torque specs is 23 lb.

Removing it is extremely easy, took me about 2 minutes in and out. The biggest issue is putting in the new one. I put my left hand behind the manifold and I have large hands and tried to use my right hand under the manifold to turn it and DROPPED the knock sensor... and could not find it for the life of me. After looking over and over again and just about to throw in the towel and order another one... I took a 15-minute break, came back, and was able to find it. Putting it back in took about 20 minutes, but still well worth it and after seeing the comments of people said it was around $385-500 I do not see why this job would cost that much unless the shop would be removing the manifold, which does not need to be done.

My guy said 100 bucks but that he wouldnt have it done for 3 days. Watched this vid and did it myself in 30 minutes. Thanks so much dude.

Bahahahaha! The pros just told me $385 because it's very labor intensive! So happy I looked this up!

[eduardoG]

Man did it just like you said .. auto zone has everything even the extensions ... saved a ton of money
Only thing is when u buy the new sensor the new one will be upside down just rotate the connection and your good to go

[anon]

Thanks you saved me $280. The mechanic said he had to take off the manifold to replace the sensor...I watched ur video and did it in 10 minutes

[AllfatherBlack]

havent done the job yet but watching this really eased my stress, i can easily handle this myself and don't need to pay an extra $150 for labor on top of parts. so now the OBD scanner i bought to figure out what was going on kinda paid for itself, plus I get to keep a new toy. thanks a ton, Cody!

Great video. It took just a few minutes to do this. The check engine light went off about 4 hours, and a couple of restarts after installation. Also knocked out an O2 sensor code that I was about to address as well. Thank you again.

Dude.. this video helped me tremendously. I thought I was going to have to remove the intake manifold. Thanks for posting. A pair of long bent needle nose pliers helps a lot with the connector.

Thanks for the video. Took me less than 10 minutes to do it, by simply following your steps. Even with XL hands didn't had any issues with unplugging old sensor and plugging new sensor back. 👍

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to remove it from underneath by pulling off the wire connector, moving the harness off the bracket(s) and then putting a 27mm deep socket on it with an extension. Not so bad after all!

My guy was at 500+ for this job. He is no longer my guy!

[ohon]

when you unplug the the connection is there enough length to it so i can check the plug and wires?

[Tbird]

Thanks for saving this single momma hundreds of dollars. I was able to do it myself!

[maribelmartinz]

lol., ., just want to thank you for mentioning oil sensor.. I was getting it mixed up with the knock sensor and continued to work on the oil sensor thinking it was a knock sensor, .,., so thanks again, ., lol

5/2021: Important REASON for P0325 Knock Sensor code: at first I thought, wow, expensive, either the knock sensor has to be replaced, or something inside the engine is causing the code (bearings?). But for us, it was because my wife ran onto a cement parking block, the front bumper had torn away from its support structure, and the under-neath splash guard (tough rubber/plastic) was flopping around under the car when driven. That's what caused the knock sensor code! I ended up cutting away most of the spash guard so that the front tires didn't hit it when turning. Anyway, I may get problems from the absence of the splash guard (but not so far, even with some rainy weather), but the P0325 Knock sensor code solved.

Thanks man saved me 300 bucks! I put some tape in the socket when I was putting the sensor back in....helped hold it.

Awesome video. Now i have a better idea how to replace one. can a bad knock sensor case an overheating problem?

[PumpernickelBread]

Best video I've seen on this. Nice job.
