Is there any chance such “mistakes” like bad rev matching or letting out the clutch too sharply causes timing belt skipping/jumping a tooth or something? The car is fine after that but my ego is not so fine :sick:
well, I will try to ask another question about KS.
Is there a little chance the knock sensor actually is not damaged? Why after a four consecutive re-starts of the engine (when engine already is warmed up) “check engine” disappears? Does mean the knock sensor works normally on warmed up engine?
Somewhere I’d read after four restarts of the engine if the ECM does not detect malfunction in KS, it just clear error from memory and the car began to work in “normal” mode. If KS is really damaged should CEL lights on the dashboard always?I’m still not solved the problem because I’m not sure if the sensor is bad or the problem is elsewhere! 🙂
I have another question:
Over how many RPM risk of detonation (knocking) in the engine is the highest? I don’t usually load the engine too much and I don’t drive my car more than 3500-4000RPM (4k in extreme cases!) on the highway.thanks guys, but let’s get back on topic. Let us summarize everything said so far, because I’m a little confused by all the information that I received here and elsewhere in the network. Is there really a reason for me to worry about health of my car? Surely I already know if I continue to stalling the car can lead to accelerated wear of some components. I’ll do everything possible to reduce to a minimum car stalling! But let’s summarize 🙂

ok, only the starter and clutch are exposed to wearing out? And what is the reason for this wear? Because I will start the engine several times as a result of the stalling of the car? Is there a difference in wear on the starter because I will start the engine twice a day more (due to car stalling) or twice will stop somewhere to buy coffee and start the engine 2 times more? Isn’t it the same thing?
My other question is: My engine has a timing chain (not belt)! Is there any risk of straining of the timing chain or shorten chain’s life? Is there a risk to the life of other engine components such as bearings, etc.?
