Any body had a problems with their 1.4 16v pinking? driving along i get a rattly sound from the engine that my dealership have blamed on the engine pinking (i guess its not getting enough fuel?) ive had vauxhall reflash the ECU, but thats made it worse if anything!! Its an 04 reg twinport corsa c with no engine mods at all. Cold starting sounds very rough with it too, very tappety. Any ideas what might be going amiss?
