Slight pinging on light load acceleration

![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi all. I have a 2010 XFR with approx. 7K. After my first service, I started to notice a slight pinging on acceleration from 2500 to 3500 rpm when the car is already warm/hot. It doesn't do it when the engine is fairly cold. The shop foreman from my dealer confirmed it on a test drive. He told me that I should change the type of gas I was using (Shell Vpower) and use Chevron Techron and I would eventually get rid of the pinging.
I did that, but it's not completely gone. Anyone else experience this, and if so, what was the cause/solution. It's driving me crazy. Thanks in advance.
