I live in Vegas, where you all know its real hot all summer long. Anyway I have noticed under light accel,when I have driven for a while and I'm sure the engine and engine bay are red hot, a little pinging. I am at 12000 miles and I use Shell super and use Seafoam every oil change in the tank. Nothing should be dirty. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am thinking from the extreme heat some predetination? Under hard accel its fine though!
