What is the purpose of a knock sensor on a 2001 Subaru Forester?
The knocking sound that the sensor is designed to detect is caused by uneven combustion of a lower octane gasoline than the engine is able to burn efficiently. The knock sensor signals the Electronic Control Unit and ignition timing and other engine parameters are changed to eliminate the knocking. Knocking, if allowed to continue over a long time can seriously damage the engine. --Ken
Have a 97 Olds 88 replaced MAP sensor and new gaskets for coolant leak everything was great. Now about 250 miles later the engine has a loud ticking knocking noise. Would this be a knock sensor?
The knock sensor is exactly what it says. It senses any knock or ticking in the engine and retards the timing. The knock sensor is not the problem, the knocking is. Go to a repair shop and have it diagnosed.

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!
