I could explain some of the differences but then I may be attacked again by the rolling road tuners
So perhaps one of them could come on and explain your higher knock reading ?Andy
I think by "too hot" he may mean that the charge temp. got high enough to promote a small amount of det?
PSL has a strange fixation with Knocklinks like he has with oils that cost more than 15 quid a gallon! Take the KL for what it is, a device that will indicate if there is a possible problem. You are NOT a "****" if you fit one, just someone who either likes gadgets or genuinely wants to be kept informed of what's going on. I would expect (like me) that such a person would also have oil pressure and maybe temperature and possibly AFR as well?

Even Andy missed the most significant drawback with RR in his very informative posts on a different thread:

As everyone knows ... I only ever post as me!!
Just because plenty of others think I am spot-on right doesn't mean that they are me!
Someone hit the nail on the head in a post above .... it is a gadget and thats all it is .... it serves no useful purpose except add something to your dash to make you feel big and important and ****.
Nowt wrong with that - just PLEASE STOP saying it has magical powers
