Default P0325

Replaced both knock sensors and wiring harness about 5,000 miles ago. Today I get a P0325 code. Is there anything besides the knock sensors that would generate this code?

Thanks.

Did you buy quality OEM knock sensors?

Of course not. I’m a tight ***. I’m sure I’m going to pay for it. 😡.

At least I know how to replace them. On the bright side it hasn’t used a drop of oil since I changed the valve cover.

Anyhow:

Not trying to beat a dead horse here ...

Simple rule of repair ... weigh the cost of doing the job with the delta in the increased cost of reputable part(s). If the ratio is lopsided then pay the extra for the part(s).

Access to the sensor is horrible in RX. The only comparable I have is the access to the starter in Lexus' V8 (SC and GS).
