The knock sensor should be on each side of the engine block. These are single wire connectors and require no special tools or tricks. Simply unscrew and install.

Engine rich codes or knock sensor codes don't normally cause engines to stall while driving. May want to check fuel pressure and ignition system before chasing the fault codes.

Hello: Yes they are under the intake, if you have 75,000 miles or more I would replace the intake gaskets also. There is a GM bulletin for adding sealer to the sensors and replacing the water seal at the back of the hood. Replace both sensors and harness.

Where is the knock sensor location on a 2005 chevy tahoe, 5.3L, V8? I was told it was beside the oil filter. I looked but can't seem to find it, Am I blind? Please Help

Unfortunately, the knock sensor is located UNDER the intake. You have to pull the intake off. I had a mechanic do mine. He said its best to replace both because they both corrode. (2 sensors, intake gasket, labor ($250)
