Before I got my H2, I had an Avalanche with a 5.3 (same engine as the 6.0) that the knock sensors went bad in. There is a TSB on the sensors. It takes about 3-4 hours to replace them due to them being under the intake manifold.

Ya. The knock sensors (2) are located under the intake manifold. I believe this can be removed as a unit including throttle body and fuel injectors. The 2 sensors should be connected by a wiring harness. Don,t know how easy this install would be though. See if a parts store can print off a diagram for you.

Funny thing, I just had mine replaced on my 07. I went wheeling last weekend, and my engine light came on. Dealer had to replace the evap canister, and the knock sensor and it's wiring harness. He said it was covered with too much dirt/mud, that it couldn't read anything. What happened to yours?

Bob,

A knock sensor is essentially a microphone that listens to your engine to detect knock. Generally it can detect a knocking rod or lifters that need to be adjusted etc...

I have no idea where the knock sensor is on the H2. My boat has a 5.7ltr 350 and the knock sensor is located on the side of the block just above the oil pan.
