Coolant leak knock sensor bank 2 sensor 2, where?

Hello,

The water entry in the knock sensor is caused by water from either engine wash or possibly rainwater.

Knock sensor 2 is usually affected.

To apply RTV sealant once the inlet manifold is removed.

How to remove intake manifold and replace knock sensors:

Replace the rear bank knock sensor and build a dam (wall) around the sensor using RTV to divert water away from the sensor. See image 1 below
Apply a bead of RTV silicone sealant approximately 9 mm (3/8 in) wide and 6 mm (1/4 in) high along the outside edge of the ridge on the engine block valley cover around the rear bank knock sensor. Do Not form a complete circle. Leave the rear section open as shown.
From the underside of the intake manifold, completely remove the rear intake manifold seal (foam material).
Reinstall intake manifold

There are various brands of RTV sealant available from online retailers and automotive stores. No need to use red, high temperature, RTV.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Boris

Good news Boris, that the advice helped. The bad news is that I forgot to torque down the knock sensors (both of them). So, I have to go back there. I noticed there are new codes, and I may have bought a bad O2 sensor (heater portion doesn't work). Then the bank 1 sensor has a connectivity issue. So the cable might be bad, may have to buy a new knock cable. Besides that, probably going to just install the oil pressure sensor and cam position sensor while I'm at it. But other than that, thanks again for the help.

Warmest Regards,

Daniel
