Rattling Sound On Toyota Highlander 2002 by Gbaj(op): 8:38pm On Feb 02, 2016

Have been noticing occasional rattling sounds under my hood when I accelerate. This sound vanishes after a few seconds, then comes back whenever it likes when I accelerate at slow speeds. Scan says knock sensors on both banks are bad. It's a V6 . Pls help.

the knock sensors help engine ecu to adjust timing, if scan says both are bad engine will ping not rattle. Rattle is related to engine wear! Damage. Replacing knock sensors will require a removal of your engine intake to access them. If in abuja, contact my oga that posted above, he will do an excellent job. your car will also get stuck in third gear when driving, be careful do not to travel with it.

Thanks a lot for the enlightenment sir, scan revealed P0325 and P0330. Unfortunately I travelled with the car recently and even did speeds of between 160- 180km/hr. No pinging sounds were noticed and the gear changed smoothly above 3rd and so on. Could it be that my knock sensors are still okay? If yes, why the codes? Am in PH. Pls help. The car hesitates to reach optimum acceleration some times, but picks up after a while when I accelerate.

so when you changed the 2 sensors, did the pinging noise stop?
