Engine knocks affect the performance of most vehicles. Hence, these should really be avoided by car owners at any cost. Engine knock refers to the high frequency vibration that is primarily caused by detonation or premature burning of fuel in the combustion cylinders. Detonation, on the other hand, is mainly caused by the carbon deposits on the cylinders, extremely hot spark plugs, high-temperature chamber, and inaccurate spark timing. Any of these should be prevented because they affect power generation in the engine. For worse, these factors can also lead to engine damage.

Detonation is a big no no to engines. Nevertheless, experts say that engines can work more efficiently if the operation conditions are near the detonation limit. This sensitive condition is already achieved today with the use of a knock sensor. Your Acura RSX Knock sensor is the piezoelectric sensor or accelerator that is designed to produce voltage whenever vibrations are sensed. Upon the detection of detonation, the knock sensor sends voltage signal to the engine management computer that retards spark timing to finally avoid the impending detonation.

Knock sensors basically have two roles: to reach the maximum engine efficiency and; to keep the engine from the bad effects of detonation. The good thing about the knock sensor is its practicality. The life span of this device is almost infinite as long as you take good care of it. You can keep the good condition of the knock sensor by avoiding fuel with much higher volatility or much lower octane ratings than what is recommended. You should therefore be wary about small signs of knock sensor failure, otherwise, the engine will suffer a lot.

Though it rarely happens, knock sensors do break down. When your Acura RSX encounters such problem, have it replaced at once to make sure that the engine will still run at its tip top condition. If you hear some knocks from the engine compartment, then the sensor might have just been damaged.
