Title: V6 Knock sensor
Post by: star_whites on 12 June 2009, 22:04:16

Ok I have my replacment front knock sensor for my 3.0 V6.

Now tell me where is this fitted to the engine. I know the cable connects to the multiplug that mounts to the cable tray on the cam belt cover but where does the other end fasten to the engine????

Hoping to get this fitted first thing in morning so any help appreciated  :y

if its driver side it sits between alternator & the block remove top bolt on alternator, loosen bottom bolt, swing alternator to the left & all will be revealed
