Code P0325 and Fuel Sys 1 CL Fuel Sys 2 CL.

Before I take my car to a mechanic, I want to know if the car if repairing the car is within my budget.

It's listed above LE wagon, and the above codes are what has recently come up.

I would appreciate it if you could give me a head's up about what is going on with my car.

Good afternoon,

This could be for the knock sensor on the right side.

Diagnostics have to done and repair has to be done.

You will need a diagnostic test for about $140.00.

The labor is 3 hours or about $450.00.

With parts and labor and if it is the sensor, I would assume around or at least $650.00 to $700.00.

DTC P0325 Knock Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Right Bank Knock Sensor)
DTC P0330 Knock Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Left Bank Knock Sensor)

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Knock sensors are fitted one each to the right bank and left bank of the cylinder block to detect engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.
