Usually safe to drive short distances, but the fault will not clear itself and can worsen or fail an emissions test.
Cylinder 10 Above Knock/Combustion Vibration Sensor Threshold
This code is in our catalogue but has not yet been through editorial review, so the guidance below is limited to what our structured data supports. We publish deeper diagnostic content only after a code has been reviewed — here is why.
The knock or combustion-vibration sensor monitors the structure-borne noise of each cylinder. The signal level for cylinder 10 has stayed above the diagnostic threshold for an extended period, indicating either persistent knock or an electrical fault that biases the channel high.
A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.
