Knock sensor 1.
There are two knock sensors, one for each bank, and are bolted to each side of the block midway along.
Sensor 1 will be the drivers side. The wire comes up from behind the alternator, around the aux belt tensioner and plugs in at the cable tray. Check that it is free and not trapped all the way from the connector to the sensor and check for damage to the cable outer. It is a screened cable (similar to co-ax) so shorts out if squashed or trapped.

Actual sensor is an extremely rare failure, as said check the cable thoroughly as it can be repaired if found to be damaged

Often catches on the aux belt.

Repair the cable is probably best option, before replacing if necessary.

thanks folks will have a look tomorrow to see if caught anywhere, is it easy to repair the cable!!!!
