That's what I assumed it might be since I have never experienced knocking or pinging but the BG 44K "appeared" to eliminate the problem.

Is there any way to know for certain if it is not the supercharger? I only have 16K miles left on the warranty.

Not available retail. Some dealerships may sell it to you over the counter. I have a few extra cans if you are interested.

Steve,

I have to take back what I said in the previous thread. It just dawned on me the first can I used was immediately prior to having the injectors cleaned. So yes, it DOES appear BG worked!
