Knock Sensors

[Lozzer]

I have a pair of these on order, looking ahead to installing them, does 20nm torque sound about right? I've done a search, and can't find anything specific in the manual either.

From memory its less than that - I think I came across it somewhere quite random in manual. I seem to recall a figure around 5 or 6nm

Thankyou Steve, best I have another look through the manual, the 20nm (converted) I got from here..

Just nip them up Loz, overtightening will break them!

IIRC there is a table of torque settings in the manual which includes knock sensors & I recall that just tight & no more is exactly the torque value.

What he said they are not strong things.
