From my understanding there is a difference between how sensitive the OEM ECU reads the knock sensor and how sensitive Ecutek reads the knock sensor. Sometimes the Ecutek software detects knock even when the OEM ECU does not. This discrepancy is the problem a few folks are encountering IINM. So it's really just a software programming thing and not the actual sensor sensitivity - I realize I did not post that clearly at all. Also, please note that I'm no expert but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express before :twocents:

Can confirm. I've had the CEL on a few times for knock after EcuTek tuning, and set up my bluetooth interface to verify. Turns out, the knock sensor reads my flywheel engagement when I shift as knock, particularly when I'm forced to do frequent gear changes in stop and go traffic on I95. A little reading showed other people have had this issue in the past.

Never heard of that before. New one to me.

Just to see if that’s the problem, as I just removed 4 :iagree:
Front AFR sensors are tapered head & rear one’s are flat :tup:

If he’s getting that bank 1 lean code then it’s the fuel trim sensor in the manifold collector. Only two of those four you pulled out would work. Thankfully you can get to that bank 1 from the top with the appropriate number of extensions on your ratchet.

Got to drive my Z today. First time in 45 days.

I had detailed it really well and put it on the trickle charger and under cover prior to me going into the hospital. I even explained to my wife how to sell it in case the worst happened.

But alas, here I am. And it feels good...

Sort of like a sore dik, you just can’t beat it... :tup:

Great to hear, Spoiler! :rock: :driving:

What did she say when you explained to her how you want to be buried in the Z in the driver seat? :icon17:

Nope, she knows I want to be cremated and sprinkled down at Lowe’s in the plywood aisle...

Hmm, are you sure you don't want them slipped into the HVAC system in a corporate office?
