My 09, EC V7 sounds like it could be pinging at low rpms under load. Anybody else notice any strange noises that could possibly be tune relate, or have any advise?

Best thing to do I think would be to shoot Jerry an email and he'll get you all sorted out.
iv had issues with the v7 since the official release , everything was sorted out but ( pinging issue ) mine happens under load as well. Very frustrating since 93oct is what we use here in New England.
Hi guys,
Just for you own info, on my V6 tune, i have been experiencing some kind of ping that sounds like continuous click at part and full throttle, 2nd and 3rd gears.
i thought it was the fuel even though i always fill with shell v power. So my last fill i added 108 octane booster.
Even with that i still get the clicking noise.
now im suspecting wether or not is detnation or not.
i may have to load the stock tune to really see what is going on.
How about you guys download the Torque Pro app (or something similiar), get a bluetooth OBD connector and log timing advance, rpm, air/fuel and do some pulls

honestly, I didn’t even know these type of stuff is available.
but that i know and it seems you have it too, are the afr parameters, knock sensor parameters already available in this apps?

I use dash command i also take out all the gps logging in settings. A dude on their forum was kind enough to make me a dashboard to monitor all the stuff we need to see. i will get some stuff edited but for now here it is. it’s Tuxedo AMG
Wow that looks excellent. How are the logging capabilities? Can you set to a high refresh rate?
the refresh rate i believe is dependent on the ODBII dongle (i got the $20 foseal). when in this screen or in "data grid" live its pretty much spot on.if i only want to monitor 6 things it logs all kinda of useless stuff. in the shorter gears ill miss sometimes 200-500rpm of all data and in taller gears max like 300rpm. The app itself has been very helpful when my engine light came on for 02 and clearing codes and other functions. im pretty crazy about the car running right so im always looking at this. if you guys have any suggestions or anything please post up.

I use dash command as well. Running E85 I like to know what my fuel looks like. The timing bar toggles between timing and LT/ST fuel.
Funny I saw that new amg one pop up but was too busy of a screen to glance at and get the data I want.
So, email Jerry, he sent an updated file (within an hour) that he pulled some timing on, flashed it and took it out for a run, noise no longer present. I’ll keep y’all updated. So sad tho, the original tune had matured into an absolute beast of a tune, loved it, but not worth the potential damage. Hope this new file matures nicely as well! Thank you all for your input
