hi guys i may just be paranoid but i feel that im slowly developing another bearing knock :evil: would the knock sensor pick it up and throw a error on the ecu?

Errrrr

Bearing "knock" and the "knock" sensor have f-all in common except the word "knock".
Knock sensor is there to detect detonation, so no it will not throw a code to tell you if you have bearing knock.
