Also local dealers are insane on prices for them. One here wanted $380 for it when I needed to replace mine. I paid $120 from Japan.

Amazon has the OEM one listed at $128. Maybe it's from that Japanese seller.

I dont trust "OEM" parts from Amazon. Already have been bitten by OEM parts from RockAuto too so I figure Amazon is even more risky. May be real, but given Amayama is by far the cheapest you can find OEM parts in the US, and this part is $120 from them plus shipping, I am very skeptical that the Amazon one is real at that price since they would be making zero profit.

I am starting to think my NGK coils from Rock Auto are not real NGKS .... But I need to do more digging there.

I find some solace in parts for our cars being so low volume its probably not worth it to make fakes. There is some real effort required to create forgerys. Just making them look exactly same as real thing. And to also be even functional at all.

All to just sell a few here and there. Not enough volume to be worth it.

Not all parts for our cars are unique in appearance. Knock sensor is prime example. They are all identical looking. Would be pretty easy to take something they faked for K series, and make an F series fake. Bag with different part number, different number branded into side.

Where did you order your knock sensor? All the dealers I've called are asking $380 to $660

Had a car come in the other day with a P0325.

It had a brand new knock sensor from a different source than oem Honda.

I put a used oem in and it fixed it.
