Hey Guys,
This is a long shot I know�.. after a VLT knock sensor!!!!
Bought myself an A8 motor which I�m rebuilding and I need this knock sensor to complete the puzzle.
Anyone????
Any reason y u want the sensor mate??? There useless anyway and do bugger all of ya car is tuned right ya won't need it all it does is retard the timing 5deg supposedly if it starts pinging or created some sort of nock
The more I read up on this, the more I see no need for one....
I just thought if they were easy to get I'll grab one, but there very ***in hard to find.
This is gonna be a brand new motor, pistons, bearings, crank, bored .... etc etc etc
Don't want to take any chances....
Plus I wont boost it until I reach 10,000ks..........
Cheers
Man in all honesty ya better off running decent boost to run it in as it will seal up better coz of the extra load and stress, and forget the nock sensor bud not required
Run what ever boost ya want Aslong as the tune is ok like if ya running standard injectors and ecu then I wouldnt recomend running any more than 10psi as it may lean out but don't be shy to give it a boot full, if ya baby it then it will end up being a slug.... Just drive it as u would on a daily basis just dont hit the limiter as on a fresh engine there's a small chance u could bang a berring out
