Re: Knock sensor

Thanks for all the responses, I'm going to try the resistor trick tonight. As it looks right now as it may be that they put the wrong torque converter in the car.

Knock sensor

Does anyone know where the knock sensor is located on the 1.8 V-6? I keep pulling a code for it and I'm just going to change it to see if that fixes this check engine light. Also is there more than one? Thanks

Re: Damn Motorized Seatbelts Sticking

Thanks for the reply. I did not know about that recall. I just sprayed the track for the seatbelt with WD-40 and it seemed to help it along, but I will contact a dealer about the recall.<P>Thanks

Mine did exactly the same thing. Then it started to slip going into gear. After that it would only go into 2nd not Drive. In drive t...
