Soooo I'm having an absolute hell of a time replacing my knock sensors. If anyone has any experience with this, could you please, please help me out?
I have the upper intake manifold off, which according to the Bentley is all you have to remove to access the knock sensors. I can see (and nearly reach) the one directly behind the oil filter housing, but I'll need to grab a smaller wrench today.
The other one, near the back of the engine block, I can't even get to, let alone see.
I don't want to do more work than I have to (i.e. ripping out the entire intake), but can't see how else it would be done. Very irritating.

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :thumbup:
