Should I replace the Knock sensors while I am in there or do they go bad that often?
I would definitely change the knock sensors on this vehicle after seeing the neglect imposed on this X5's motor. I assume this vehicle also has high mileage? You have this engine ripped all the way down you do not want to put it back together and then find out that you have a bad knock sensor. With 4 in the engine one is bound to go.
