Installing left knock sensor

CAUTIONEngine damage and changed exhaust behavior due to incorrectly mounted knock sensors!

> The precise tightening torque for the knock-sensor screw must be observed, otherwise the proper function of the knock sensor is not ensured.

> The knock sensors must a aligned so that the sensor housing and the cable plug do not touch anywhere, otherwise proper functioning of the knock sensor is not ensured.

Note. Clean attachment surfaces of knock sensor on the cylinder block with a cloth. The installation position is difficult to reach.

1. Place knock sensor in installation position and secure with a fastening screw.

2. Tighten fastening screw to the specified torque. A 1/4-inch tool with an angled ball head can be used here (this is necessary given the limited space and the narrowness of the tool). --> Tightening torque: 15 ftlb.

3. Connect knock sensor cable plug using a pointed-nose pliers.

4. Secure vacuum unit -9 to 16-. To do this, press rubber mountings into the corresponding holes on the bracket. Then secure the fastening pin -8-. --> Tightening torque: 6.0 ftlb.. see scheme 113

1. Pull the design cover straight up and off.

3. Remove air cleaner housing lid and air-cleaner element. Refer to 24 25 19 Removing and installing air cleaner housing - as of MY 2004 (Cayenne TIP, Cayenne MAN) .

Scheme 51: Removing crankshaft pulse sender

1. Remove two fastening nuts for the hose holder and press the holder aside -arrows-. (Scheme 50)

Scheme 52

Scheme 52

Note. The cable plug for the crankshaft pulse sender is secured in a difficult-to-reach position at the guide tube for the oil dip stick.

2. Press the cable plug for the crankshaft pulse sender at the guide tube for the oil dip stick towards the cylinder block (only pushed in) -arrow-. Then disconnect the cable plug. (Scheme 51)

Scheme 53

Note. The cable for the crankshaft pulse sender is installed between the cylinder block and the oil filter housing/engine support arm.

3. Remove crankshaft pulse sender by loosening the fastening screw -arrow-. Pull the crankshaft pulse sender out of the cylinder block. Carefully pull out the cable. (Scheme 52)
