My understanding is to remove the intake manifold for this

You can purchase an OEM knock sensor from EBAY for between $40 and $60 dollars. Thats what I did and mine works perfectly.

In my case, the intake manifold doesn't need to be removed.I bought $60 on ebay.Thanks.

What yr is your maxima? And u didnt have to remove the intake?

On my '96 i30t with a VQ30DE, the knock sensor was right under the intake, i started taking it off, but it's too much work for 1 small part. I ended up using a u-joint type ratchet adapter with an extension to get the part off and back on - but you might need to find some1 with small enough hands to get the part out and back in place.

Thats really good news-no intake removal

Thanks for the inf0
