Installed a k n air filter and now as light knocking noise at idle 2005 exterra 4.0 v6 oil is good need help?

I had the same problem when I cleaned and replaced my KN filter after 3 months of use. It was caused by too much oil on the filter element. It fowls the knocking sensor on the engine and causes the knocking noise at idle. I removed the filter and cleaned it. Then I very lightly oiled it and replaced it. The knocking went away in about a week. If it doesn't, you might have to replace the sensor. I'm not a mechanic... this is all the help I can give you. Good luck!

Has Chevy ever fixed the knocking engine noise in the 5.3 for any customers?

NO. There conclusion was that it is a NORMAL problem with the 6.0L and 5.3L engines and that it will not do any HARM are cause a early engine problem as long as you let the engine idle and warm up to running temperature before driving.The noise that you hear are the PISTONS slapping in the cylinders when engine is cold. As the engine warms up the piston expand and tighten up in the cylinders and the noise goes away. That is SAD. For a company such as Chevy to do NOTHING about that problem. I own a 2000 6.0L too, and it is also noisy on start up.

There are a number of reasons why an engine would knock when you idle the vehicle. It could be your motor mounts. You may also need oil.
