I noticed when I put in a couple gallons of E85 on fill up, the pinging stops. I just chalk it up to the S65 being extra sensitive to fuel octane since I can only get 91 here in CA. I run AlpineMSS tunes on all my car, I don't recall the noise being there on the stock tune. |

I had this as well with one brand of 91 octane, but it goes away with two other brands which have 93 and 94 octane.
EDIT: More specifically I had it for years and as soon as I added 93/94 octane gas, it was gone. |

Hmmm totally a coincidence, but after my oil change and switching to 5W50, the pinging has gone away for now. Could be that the gas station I went to got proper 94 Octane as well though.
I'm still on a 2 year old tune I believe from Alex@AlpineMSS

Older alpine tune pinged like max on my car. New code seems better.

Does this resemble the rattling you heard? I had this sound on the second most recent Alpine tune, and it seems less noticeable with the latest update. Not sure if tune related, as the car sat for a month, and the newest tune was applied right when I got home. I do have to tighten up my donut gaskets in the exhaust because I'm having a small exhaust leak, I guess the sound could be coming from there. It sounded like it's coming from underneath the car, not the front/engine area. |

* Buy 6MT M3 last Oct, the car comes with Alpine tune * Notice pinging when lugging (high gears, 75%+ throttle @ low RPMS like < 2k) * Put back stock tune, pinging goes away for the most part, but still there under same conditions as above, just very faint * Load up newly updated tune (Stg 2) this past month, slightly more pinging than stock, but a significant improvement over the sound it made when I initially bought the car. I fill up at BP - 93oct, in North Jersey. Many have said S65 does not like being lugged and that it's one of a kind with all of the funny noises it makes.
