That's interesting... it said under heavy engine load.... curious if taking off is considered heavy engine load?

Is your an 7A also? How do you get rid of the engine ping? My wife usually just let off the throttle for like a second and it would be fine afterward. It never occur once it gets going or any other gear higher than 1st.

This is no cause for concern, because you get the greatest fuel benefit when there is light spark knock for a short time under heavy engine load." Seems to be normal if nissan has it in the manual
