Hi guys. For the past several mths my 2 litre with IVT has pinged under load.
This is when it does it most.
I can be stopped or going slow say 40 kph. I floor it, now as it approaches and does the stepped gear change it will ping for a about 3 seconds. It will do this everytime it approaches and does that gear change. It wont do it driving normal where it feels like no gear change, only when pushed and goes through the stepped changes.
I have tried other fuel brands, higher octane, no difference. No codes showed at the dealership and they said it didn't do it for them. Funny that it does it everytime for me and did on the drive home.
Window closed you won't hear it. Window open and listen and its unmistakable pinging. They probably didn't open the window.
I also when window is open and floor it get a big exhaust smell come through the window, rich exhaust smell too.
Anyone else hear this with theirs?
