ABS checking sound will be heard whenever u off the ignition and then start the engine again,the first move off to 30km/hr.Many of the forum members came to me regarding this issue.

lhhao:
Anyway, is pinging of engine bad for the engine?

d.titan:
yes engine ping is bad
hv tried to find what causes it,
duno understand the explaination.

think it started abt 2yrs
when the car was abt 4yrs old

It also help with the octane booster,
but more $
so i just stick with caltex 98

they hv the little people cleaning up yr engine....
in their advert.....

cheers
