[urq] Knock sensor ?

[Steve Eiche]

Personally, I would only replace the knock sensor with the same part. I 
don't know the exact specs for the different sensors, so any opinion 
that I might have on whether or not the earlier sensors are directly 
compatible is pure speculation.  I do know that on the 3B and AAN the 
only difference in the two part numbers for front and rear is the length 
of the wire, and I believe they only sell one now for either position.
