So with IAM at 1, and KC Learned at some value, it shows that your engine is not currently knocking, but has knocked at some point in the past.
Ah that makes sense, I know knocking in engine can cause by improper air to fuel ratio, do you think having a faulty upstream and downstream o2 sensor can cause this problem?
