You wouldn't notice any difference with the knock sensor broken.
Get down to a dealer and hand over about £85 for a new one supplied and fitted

I'm no expert but if the sensor is fooked then it can't make the necessary adjustments within the engine to avoid knock.
Drive off boost and have a new one fitted - and still get a knock link
