Re: code PO328 knock sensor

I did wind up replacing the knock sensor. Found a youtube video that showed how. Having done it now, I see that if you had all the tools available in a good place to work, like in a mechanic's shop, and you had done it before, you could do the whole thing in 20 minutes.

Re: Damp under carpet

I have a 2009 vibe with a similar problem. I washed the car yesterday and today I started hearing a strange sound when making a sharp turn(either way) . Then my wife discovered the passenger side carpet was wet. Water is apparently sloshing from somewhere in the ventilation system onto the fan durin...
