Exactly 40mph or just high speeds?

What happened with mine is at freeway speeds, no specific mph, I would get a CEL. Turned out my knock sensor had busted in half where the plastic piece is joined.

good to hear you got it fixed...the knock sensor wire can be a pain in the ***...i put a silicone sleeve on mine so that exact problem didnt happen.

yea there was a piece of rubber wire sleeve near by the splice.
i just taped up the splice and pulled the sleeve over it and taped that too so it would protect it.
