Check engine light
Hi all picking your brains here,
For some strange reason my car has started throwing up the CEL when i start it up in the mornings and soon after driving (5/10 mins), but if i go out in the car the same afternoon it doesnt flash up
The car still runs fine, no hesatation with anything, i know this posts a bit vague but i was wondering if anyone else had similar problems
Cheers

Sorry to sound dumb here but is that bad news (engine rebuild) or am i over reacting?
Does the knock sensor mean there is something really wrong with it or could the sensor just be on the way out?

I don't know much but I think it means the knock sensor is failing. Did you connect the green connectors under the steering wheel? Did it confirm an error code? I used this link to check mine recently and had no errors. Hope it helps
