Unless you want to take it into dealer, keep trying the easiest ones first!

Good Luck!
Today (Saturday) I put 93 octane in. It has not pinged so far. I cannot afford to keep running 93 octane though and shouldn't have to after 3 years of 87 octane.
If it is a bad gas problem.....I am testing this theory by switching brands of gas (I usually get Exxon) and second, I am wondering if is happening from switching to/from oxygenated gas that is used in New Joisey. I believe the state usually changes in April/May timeframe.

Of not the bad gas theory, I will then look into the other suggestions.
