kayzarh Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Hi, Wondering what is the best way to install this sensor. Do I run a 2 score shield cable back to ECU area and then pin into the expansion connector? I am planning to run ground and power expansion into engine bay for some additional sensors, 2 combined Bosch pressure temp sensors and a link IAT sensor. Please can you advise best install method to get cleanest knock signal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 For the Knock sensor, wire it to the same pins the factory sensor used. Knock ground and shield both to B136-29, knock signal to B136-26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knock ground and shield both to B136-29, knock signal to B136-26 Based on this, is it worth me going to a Bosch wideband knock sensor or is the 1 pin style v7 sensor sufficient for knock detection on a 2.5 engine with forged pistons?

Adamw Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 I have no idea, I suspect if it is a resonant frequency sensor from a different sized engine it is probably not going to be ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayzarh Posted September 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 If I use the factory 2007 knock sensor which was on the 2.5 engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 That would probably be the better option if you want to stick with OEM stuff. I have no experience with that specific engine or sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
