Knocking / Pinging
Hi everyone
I just purchased a new second hand import from Japan Toyota Vitz 2003 facelift model 1.3 with CVT Transmission. It has 60,000ks on it and is in immaculate condition. When at low revs /under stress when travelling under 70kmh the engine makes a pinging sound. When we put it into sports mode (increases the revs by approx 600) the problem goes away. I have tried a tank of both low and high octane fuel and it has made little difference. Is it a problem with the valves? Any thoughts much appreciated. Cheers |
