I tried to fire up the GS-T this morning since its only -4 and it took along time. When I did get it fired up though it started poping a little (like detonation) so I turned it off right away. It has never done this before and I've drove it in -20 weather once (it was fine).
As well, detonation at idle is something that you'll never see ouside of very special circumstances, and all of them are induced through tuning, usually on purpose.

Well the car was backfiring a lot but it also sounded like rocks shaking in a pop can... I've got the preset from Doug so hopefully I can throw it back on the ECU. I know the timing is very off at the moment.
Unhooking the battery won't wipe anything from the MS.

"rocks shaking in a pop can" is definately detonation...right guys? I was told it sounds like marbles in your motor, luckily I've never heard it in person.
