NTK ID0014 Ignition Knock (Detonation) Sensor - Right

Ignition Knock Sensor Overview

NTK ID0014 is an ignition knock sensor built for import and domestic applications that require OE-style signal accuracy and connector-specific fitment. It is listed for a wide range of Audi, Volkswagen, Seat, and Porsche models, including Audi A4, Audi Q5, and Volkswagen GTI applications.

This sensor uses a female connector with three terminals, an oblong connector shape, and a 15.25-inch wiring harness. The harness is included, and the unit uses blade terminals for a direct electrical interface.

Key Features

• Ignition knock (detonation) sensor for engine knock detection and timing control
• Female connector with oblong shape for application-specific fitment
• Three-terminal blade design for secure electrical connection
• 15.25-inch wiring harness included
• Manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications
• Extensive coverage for Audi, Volkswagen, Seat, and Porsche vehicles

Detailed Description

NTK ID0014 is part of the NTK Ignition Knock (Detonation) Sensor line, a technical sensor range backed by NTK’s OE experience and testing standards. The sensor is engineered for vehicles that rely on accurate knock detection to help the engine control system respond to combustion irregularities. Fitment includes many Audi A4, Audi Q5, and Volkswagen Golf Alltrack applications, along with additional Audi, Volkswagen, Seat, and Porsche models.

NTK states that its sensors undergo thermal shock, vibration, and OBD verification testing, and that the finished product is manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications. This part cross-references Standard Ignition (e.g., KS312, KS356) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a failed knock sensor that can trigger drivability and engine management faults
• Restoring proper knock signal input to the engine control system
• Addressing diagnostic trouble codes related to detonation sensing
• Correcting intermittent sensor signal loss caused by wiring or connector issues
• Supporting accurate ignition timing response under load

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and harness length before installation. Some listed applications use a wire lead or green connector, and several fitments are specific to certain cylinders or a right-side mounting location. Match the vehicle notes exactly to confirm the correct application for your Audi, Volkswagen, or Porsche model.

Quality Assurance

NTK is the only OE supplier with a full line of technical sensors in the aftermarket for import and domestic vehicles. The brand subjects sensors to thermal shock, vibration, and OBD verification testing to support OE-level performance and application coverage.
