dattozed Posted May 13, 2004 Share #2 Posted May 13, 2004 Valve chatter.Usually you dont experience pinging (detonation) unless the car is warm and under load. That is the time you most likely will hear pinging.It might also be preignition though as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor Posted May 13, 2004 Author Share #3 Posted May 13, 2004 well the noise is actually louder when the engine is cold, when engine is under load I cant hear pinging noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
