I've never been able to figure out how to create album on this forum, as whenever I try, it asks me to create an album, but to create an album you have to select a parent album, but if you've never created an album there are no parent albums to choose from.

Apparently, I am an idiot.

Looks like the metal end of a broken off knock sensor...

Agreed. Was your knock sensor replaced? Clutch been done?

The part number has a German font look to it. Esp the "5." Was the mechanic working on a Euro car next to your Honda?

Billman has spoken. Mystery solved. Its the knock sensor (part of it).

Yet another thing that was apparently broken by the morons that the PO had do the clutch. They also mangled up the console, prying in the wrong places, breaking stuff, etc.

Wondering what else they screwed up. My clutch has always had trouble with low pedal height, engages right off the floor.

I've done numerous clutch clean n' bleed, adjusted pedal height, adjusted rod freeplay (per Billman), replaced MC, replaced slave (oem Honda parts). Still having clutch drag issues...

Oh yeah the knock sensor would look like that with the "cardboard" connector removed, lol, that crap is brittle as hell it isn't much stronger than cardboard
