Hey guys. I have been having a very interesting issue with knock detection on my car. Here is the issue as best that I can explain it.
When I start my car cold, there is no issues other than idle surge. as I drive my car it feels strong and runs great. This is until the car reaches operating temp. Then I seem to have a ton of knock detection even at just normal cruising speed in 5th gear at about 60-65 mph, randomly my check engine light comes one and I can feel a severe power loss. Now if I just drop to 3rd gear and floor it, I don't have a single issue. I am really confused and have no idea where to start. I do know where I have a couple small issues but they have never caused any issues in the past.
I do have ECMlink V3 lite.
Thanks in advance for the help.
