On my last trip, on hot days I noticed it was easy to get my Challenger to ping.
In 5 & 6th gears while passing cars.......open the throttle quickly and get a few pings until the ecm either makes fuel richer or retards timing.
Same gas brand with a few tankfulls at different locations. Will change gas brand to see if it makes a difference.
I will be glad when we have a tuner to make this engine "happy"
She moves good even with a bad oem tune....I can just imagine what a good tune will do.
Can reach 112 mph limit very easy in 5th & 6th.
Anybody else noticed pinging if throttle is opened quickly in the two high gears?
