P0325 on a Nissan Rogue
Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1)
QR25 Rogue.
What P0325 usually means on a Rogue
P0325 means the Rogue's knock sensor circuit has failed, so the ECU cannot detect detonation and retards timing as a safeguard. Expect slightly reduced power or economy while it is set. On the QR25 the sensor sits on the block, and its connector or wiring is often the real culprit. It is a reliability nuisance more than an emergency.
Most likely causes on this model
- Failed knock sensor
The sensor fails with age and heat, opening the circuit.
- Wiring or connector damage
The knock-sensor harness corrodes or chafes over time.
- Poor ground or ECU connection
A degraded ground mimics a bad sensor.
What it costs on a Rogue
The part is modest; access on the QR25 can require removing components above the sensor, which adds labor. Inspect the connector and wiring first - a cheap step - before buying a sensor.
