Engine Knock Sound - Explained
What is the knocking sound coming from my engine? What is engine knock? Why is my engine making a knocking noise? Engine knock, or pinging, occurs when a separate pocket of air-fuel mixture ignites after the spark has ignited the air-fuel mixture within the combustion chamber. Engine knock can be prevented using higher octane fuels, retarding ignition timing, or by using a lower compression ratio, among other solutions.
