My 2018 zl1 keeps loosing boost
so pretty much, i was getting a code for knock sensor and everytime i push the car to the limit the engine light comes on and i loose a lot of boost of the supercharger the code for knock sensor comes up but after the car been stopped for a few hours it goes away so i decided to replaced it but still everytime i drive using the full power of the car after few minutes it comes back again. i dont know what to do its so annoying when the power is reduced. what should i do?
p.s a performance mechanic changed it for me. |

I would start by posting this in the Camaro6 forum, but knock sensor sensitivity could be set wrong or too much timing is really causing detonation.

could be low octane gas, even if you put it in yourself from xyz gas station, it could have low octane in their tanks.
