If your solve ur problem, oil or not, please post here so we can all learn.

Hope this helps.
are you referring to the vvel knock? thought it was only effect some early g37 models?

I plan to use mobil one (currently using Castrol dino oil) on the next oil change. there should be improvement if it is oil related.
