i was just wandering if anyone else's frontier makes this sort of sound under a fairly hard acceration. It is hard to believe it is pinging as the nock sensor should make the cpu retard the timing. I don't know if it could be just the sound the cvvtc or the variable intake makes. I don't want the just go running to the dealer if it is normal. Any help is appreciated.Thanks

The sound starts around 4000 rpm under hard acceleration. it kind of sound like a rattle, like something could be viberating. it also sound simular to pinging. my wife says it is the truck telling me to knock it off. i am not sure how else to describe it. thanks
