PINGING NOISE IN THE ENGINE WHEN THROTTLING

What is your question?

My Lexus RX 300 1999 model is a sweet suv.However, I noticed a pinging noise when the car is throttled in stop and go traffic or going up hill or briefly when the vehicle is warmed up.I have changed plugs,oil etc.Though it has really reduced and no longer loses power but I still hear the pinging noise though not as loud and long.

Try a higher octane fuel or a different brand as the discount fuels have a low octane rating
