Has anyone had any success with aftermarket knock sensors? Please tell me which brand. Not really in the mood to shell out $$ for 2 sensors and wiring harness.

 

Oh man, just want nobody wants for christmas. lol

Sorry I'm not much help but I liked your thread title while passing by.
Cheers

 

I'm in the same boat. Happened a little over two weeks ago. 160k miles. Was planning on both sensors, starter, and intake manifold gasket. Rock Auto has multiple sensors to choose from. On line dealer cost are about $107 for each sensor. The wiring harness I am not sure applies to us though. I know it's on the 2JZ. Just not sure about ours. Good luck.

It's all good thanks and yeah it's not what I wanted lol cheers😊
Hmm it certainly is a big downer OK sounds good thanks a lot! I definitely want to stay away from the dealer😵

 

They have NTK and WVE sensor at $86 and $90 each at Rock Auto. Those two brands are their highest quality with a 36,000 mile warranty. Good Luck.
