Now, if you had could explain some logs or scans of what these cars are doing precisely when people like the OP hear these events, that is knowledge... Or better yet, Subaru or Toyota engineers explain these occurrences with models, graphs, or EMPIRICAL DATA, that is knowledge... |

So if I tell you that there is a table in the ECU which controls transient spark during shifts, or when the clutch is depressed, you'd think that was speculation?

Good luck with your "issue" ....
Might try not shifting fast at a point in the rpm range that doesn't benefit you....

Good post, but as an OEM engineer in this industry for 20 years let me fill you in on a couple things: 1. Pre OBDII developed Toyota/Subaru engines were not tuned to the edge of detonation. They were tuned for reliability and durability. 2. Subaru boxer engines have been much less reliable than other Japanese engines since OBDII Go to any Subaru forum and find the long threads about blown headgaskets and spunt rod bearings. Try to find a post '96 developed Subaru original engine in a 500k mile club. Also OPer please disregard the false info about a TSB, there is no detonation TSB. It does not exist. This forum needs to be honest and stop posting false information. These engines are factory tuned to last roughly 60k-100k hard miles that's just how long Subaru engines last on the factory tune before they have to be taken apart. For over 10 years it was their EJ's with blown headgaskets that Subaru did nothing about. Make no mistake a post '96 Subaru engine is not like a Honda or Toyota engine that will last 300-500k miles. We as a enthusiasts can work on a reliable tune, it will mean less timing and more fuel in spots. It will mean installing a header without cats because the exhaust will be hotter. But the engine will last forever like Subaru engines of old before ODBII. We can make these engines durable because we aren't bound to different government regulations like the OEMs. But it won't happen by sitting on our hands waiting on the OEMs, they have no incentive to fix this issue and in their defense its because their hands are tied. The good news is even turbo owners are reporting zero knock with their logs using a good tune, we are in a situation where a modest boosted FA20 with a good tune will last longer than the poor sap who keeps his car stock and the way I see that's a good thing. Probably a big part of the reason Toyota allowed this ECU to be non encpryted.

This is a deliberate lie, there is no TSB, you are spreading B.S.

He is correct
There is a TSB but in S. Africa not in the US

This little boxer will run happily all day on 91. Trace detonation, assuming that's actually what's happening, is perfectly harmless. Indeed, the knock sensor doesn't do anything until trace detonation is detected. Frankly, I'm not sure how to tell the difference between pinging and DI noise in an engine like this. The type and frequency of these two noises is going to be tough to tell apart from the cabin. Harmful detonation is generally inaudible because the engine is pulling very hard when the destruction occurs. Modern street engines certified emissions compliant CANNOT suffer from catastrophic, detonation the ECU will not allow it. Figure it out gentlemen, diesel piston engines detonate continuously without any damage. So can gasoline powered engines. Destructive detonation is an entirely different phenomenon. |

I'd add a few gallons of vp104 race gas and see if it stops....instead of trying to hurt the engine
( there's some helpful info for ya)

All I can say about this thread is.... WTF. Lol
The pressure traces above look NOTHING like detonation. There is NO TSB anywhere except S Africa. Stock transient retard table has no retard anywhere in the high load regions at any rpm. Only low load low rpm. And this is normal since high load to high load is not a transient. So.... if you think transients are ur problem. Just shift wot lol. Ie.... dont lift the gas foot when driving aggressively lol. |

Ps. Diesel engines do not detonate normally. Detonation is 'abnormal' combustion. However.... ever seen how robust a diesel engine is?
Japanese standards state that 96 or higher ron is 'high octane'. This is roughly equivalent to 91 to 92 over here |
