The Check Engine light on my 5-speed '97Outback is lit. My mechanic
says that the computer code indicates that the Knock Sensor is bad.
The mechanic also says that the sensors are on back order from Subaru
and they are allocating them ONLY with the VIN number from the car.
This seem to indicate there has been a larger than expected number of
sensor failures.
Does anyone here know about an unusually large number of Knock Sensor
failures? If so, is Subaru taking any responsibility for this problem?
(Yes, I know my car is almost 7 years old.) Also - does anyone have a
source for the knock sensor other than Subaru?
Thanks.
