Thanks for the tips hughzee. Got it in and that pesky check engine light is off. The green part of the sensor was cracked so I just took all the housing off. The only problem I ran into was that grey connector was in the way, I guess its part of the harness wiring, and just could not get it disconnected to move it. Maybe I could have used a shorter 24mm socket... So anyway i ended up using the impact wrench with extension on the 12mm bracket bolt nothing like a bit of overkill with power tools but it wasn't budging by hand. The knock sensor broke loose nice and easily with the ratchet so that was good. Replacement sensor installed.

Thanks hughezee. I will do an oil change soon and have a go. Maybe I can update this with some pics if it goes well.

Hi guys. I have a crack in my knock sensor thats giving me a check engine light. Has anyone ever replaced one in the 2.0 accord coupe and got any tips? Its very tight to try and maneuver a ratchet from underneath. Some guides have suggested taking the drive axle out but I really dont want to dive into all that. Any kind of thumb ratchet or extension that could help? Thanks.
