SRT Knock Sensors

Carquest Premium knock sensors are designed to perform in harsh engine environments and meet or exceed original equipment (O.E.) specifications. Carquest Premium knock sensors are built by manufacturers that meet IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. We utilize advanced technology to design sensors that are, in many cases, stronger than OE parts. Carquest Premium knock sensors undergo extensive validation testing to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability. Carquest Premium knock sensors are part of our Carquest Vehicle Solutions, which is a full line of engine management and electronics products that help control ignition, fuel delivery and emission systems. Carquest Vehicle Solutions are OE-quality parts designed, engineered and tested by world-class manufacturers to ensure a reliable and long-lasting repair.

The Ignition Knock (Detonation) Sensor monitors vibrations caused by engine knock or detonation to alter the ignition timing and prevent detonation. A piezoelectric crystal generates a varying voltage based upon engine vibration intensity to delay ignition timing to help prevent severe and costly engine damage. Reasons for replacement include check engine light illumination, engine hesitation, poor fuel economy or failed emissions test.

Delphi’s ever growing portfolio of high quality vehicle sensors are backed by stringent OE development and product validation methods. We offer a wide range of sensors, including ABS, camshaft, crankshaft, knock, EGT, MAP, temperature, throttle position, and vehicle speed sensors for a variety of vehicle applications. All of our sensors are tested and calibrated to OE standards, ensuring accurate readings, which helps to reduce comebacks.
