The knock sensor is located at the back of the engine on the Passenger side




Torque setting for the retaining bolt is 24Nm

Hope this helps,

The torque is important, you can squash them quite easily.

They can sometimes be cracked even if you torque them correctly. If you have access to a lathe (or some accurately sized washers), that issue can be sorted easily so that the bolt head bears only on the metal core of the sensor and can't touch the plastic bit.
