n/m disregard this post, i'm tired, and aggravated because i'm supposed to be driving up to canada next week with the car.. i'll fix it tomorrow

I'm confused. If you know what the code does and how to fix it you'd know it can't have anything to do with your gas.

i just found it funny how the problem went away after switching gas before.... so thats why i asked

Code 52, knock sensor. Mmm. I just got done dealing with mine. FWIW, if I drove slow my check engine light wouldn't come on, but the second I started getting up over 2500 RPM the light would come on. It turned out to be bad wiring which I fixed with Shaeffs knock sensor rewire kit. You're lucky you only have one knock sensor if you need to do the rewire or change it. The rear knock sensor was a BITCH to get to.

dc: code 52 requires parameters be met in load, rpm, and time before it turns the MIL on. I'd tell you what they are but then I'd have to kill ya ;)

viper: You have a wiring or sensor problem. Most likely wiring.

Lol either way, it's not there bugging me and making the car feel sluggish.

But I agree, it's probably the wiring. But don't be disappointed when you do the rewire and the code is still there. Parts on the car are getting old. Time to replace a lot of things.

yea.. i'm gonna get some wire from work later today and just do the rewire... i just hope i can make it to canada since i've been waiting for this trip for a year
