Default Diesel pinging pre-detonation IMPORTANT NOTICE

I know there is another old thread but I have finally had mine corrected. After being told my new Titanium was fine (in spite of considerable noise) and to use different diesel I had had enough and went to a different dealer (Titan Ford Melville). Explained my problem and was directed to the "gun" who was Europe trained etc.
Well he reprogrammed it in 15 minutes and transformed the car!
It is like a new car - completely quiet, no noise at all, smooth and power is up at least 15-20% - the car fly's!
And incidentally economy is very much improved. I asked him if there could have been damage caused and I think he did not want to drop Ford in it but it could damage the engine if left long term (I have done 12K).

DO NOT ACCEPT EXCUSES!!! there is a fix put out by Ford and if your dealer does not admit it get them to call Daniel at Titan.
BTW - he finally put me out of my misery re the auto lock on the doors on pull off. The Titanium will not do it. Stupid.
