Check your RON plug mate and make sure its not on 91RON!! This could cause it to pink when using 95/98 RON fuel. | |

Could also be caused bu the saprk plug not firing meaining that the fuel explodes when the piston moves up increasing prssure. This causes the explosion to happen a moment to late causing pinking | |

pinking to my knowlegde is when the timing of the spark is incorrect and fires at the wrong time....thus causing this sound (pinking). | |

How do you know its pinking? Its most probably crap in the fuel lines or injectors as you said its most prone when petrol is low. you often get crap in the tank from when you fill up. | |
