The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)

Rear bank knock sensor corrosion from water intrusion (P0332)

Applies to: 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L only

Customers may report mild to severe engine ping (spark knock), usually worse during acceleration, and/or an illuminated MIL.

The technician may find DTC P0332 set.

How to tell

P0327P0332Check engine / Service Engine Soon

What to do

  1. If P0327 and P0332 set at the same time, inspect for poor connections at the two-wire knock sensor harness located at the left rear side of the intake manifold near the top, just under the cover.
  2. Check the resistance of the knock sensors including the harness before reinstalling the intake manifold.
  3. Replace the rear bank knock sensor and build an RTV dam around the sensor to divert water away from it.

Caution: Do not form the RTV into a complete circle; leave the rear section open.

What is needed

Parts and materials
  • Rear bank knock sensor
  • RTV (to build a dam around the sensor that diverts water)

A cause or a result a complaint states is the owner’s view or what a dealer told them, not an established fact.

Put together by FaultCrate from public records and technical documents. The cause and the repair are for the workshop to decide with the vehicle in front of it. Counts are records, not failure rates.
