Are you manual? If so, sounds like your clutch is toast!

get it hooked to a scanner, i just went through this with mine, lazy motor and drop in fuel eco no engine light. got a scanner and it had a p0327 code. this is your knock sensor but most time on our motors its the harness. i just replaced my sensor this weekend, fixed the issue, came back on way to work this morning. i'm going to order the harness now.

it was really easy to get to, but alot of bolts to deal with. the intakes have to come off and the fuel rail and injectors can come off and be set to the side without disconnecting the fuel lines. you may want to also grab a set of orings for your injectors too if you have some miles on the car. i had one in really bad shape.

it took me about 1.5 hrs too pull it all apart taking my time and being careful, and about 30min to put it back together.

I already took my upper and lower plenums off and put in the kinetix ssv intake manifold. So really all I would have to do is UN bolt it and work with moving the fuel rail?

I hooked up a scanner to the car and got that' same code. I went AutoZone looking to buy the scanner and they said they had one for $30 and one for $140. Also they said they didn't have the harness. Were did u order ur parts from? I want to make sure I get the right parts

Also infiniti gave me a price of $230 for the knock sensor and 103 for the harness. And it's weird because he said there's no part named ks harness he said they were named wiring 1 2 and 3 and he looked up the one that was for my car. Were did u guys get yours from
