Intermittent PO327 - Knock Sensor, or could it be the O2's causing the problem? My car randomly throws PO327. The light just comes on once and a while. Other times, it's never on. I've cleared it a couple times, and everytime I clear it, it comes right back. I'll drive it for a couple days, and it'll go out... and then it'll come back on sometime later. I've been using Mobil 93 ever since I got the car, so the fuel is ruled out. A buddy of mine suggested it might be my oxygen sensors are messed up and tripping the knock sensor code. Is this a possibility? I don't want to rip my intake out only to find the code is still there after I put new knock sensors in. Please help! |
Anyone at all?? |
TTT. :) Anyone have any ideas? I'll get the code cleared, drive away, and it comes back on. Is it just a bad knock sensor? When I replace the knock sensor what else do I need? like intake gaskets? thanks |

When I replace the knock sensor what else do I need? like intake gaskets? thanks u dont need anything. but a good thing is to change the knock sensor harness also. i did my yesterday. my old harness didnt full engage the knock sensor which resulted in a low voltage code for that sensor. also u want to put some RTV around the top of the black boot with a opening in the back. also its a good time to upgrade to a ls6 intake manifold :) |
Change the knock sensors, if they are covered in oil you need to replace the seals in the valley cover. And like stated above about the silicone. |
