morning all!
could someone please verify to me whether knock sensor and where they are on my 2001 2.6 v6 please
so car running crap and sluggish, i did get caught short the other day and used asda fuel. i did the pedal test and if i read correctly it is fault code 0330 it was 10 blips 3 then 3 then 10, so reckon 0330.
i have read a couple articles on the knock sensor and tried to follow instructions to where located but i must admit i am thick as still cannot find. has anyone pictures of these fixed in posistion ?
if not can someone give me the complete idiots guide to the knock sensor.
best regards

0330, knock sensor 2 passenger side. Just below #4 pot on block, squareish connector. There should be a connector on a flying lead around the area where the main loom goes to the ECU box for the knock sensor.
Knock sensor actually plugs in on plastic cable tray running over passenger side bank of cylinders and drops down by dipstick tube. Find the connector then follow the screened cable to it.

The passenger side sensor is a pig to get at.Pretty much in the middle of the side of the block.Lots of things in the way.
