Cant get my 2012 JCW to stop pinging
Love the car to death but just cant seem to get it to stop knocking, and really badly, 3 out of 10 times when I really put my foot in it. Walnut blasting was done, fuel pump is new, I run good gas (91 only) and I have even thrown a bit of that redline fuel system snake oil at it. No luck.
Thoughts?

Just rolled over 40k.
Latest update: had the shop foreman at the local dealer come with me for a drive. His eyes went real wide when I demonstrated the issue "yeah, we dont need to go further, this is a real problem that needs to be addressed"
And you wont believe it....................new engine is on its way!!!!
They had already tried fuel pump, injectors, de-carbon blasting etc
