Question

I have had my SRT for a week now and I am hearing something that sounds like pinging or detonation. Has anyone else heard this? It happens at about 25% throttle when it revs all the way up. I am just curious if it could be possible. What do you guys think?

I would call Mo up at SRT and tell him what you are hearing. Having the A/F too lean is not going to help your engine so call SRT.

If you are attending the ClubLexus meet on the 19th at Carson Toyota I or a good friend of mine who is a very knowledgeable Lexus mechanic can take a look at it.
