Have to put an exclamation point on this...a ping is a very distinct sound, and to these ears anyway most vehicles I've heard pinging sound almost identical, from 4-cylinder to 8-cylinder cars. So, again, you do know a ping when you hear one, right?

And I have to ask, did the techs at the new dealer hear the noise?
