Clean your throttle body, MAF sensor, chk replace air filter & spark plugs. Then see

Knocking on 1000cc is common due to our Petrol but you can get rid of it by adding Hi-Octane

Engine Knocks When Acceleration Padel Is Depressed
In my Vitz 2006 automatic transmission car, it works fine when cold that is the car accelerates normally feeling the power with respect to the depressed accelerator. After a journey of 10 to 15 Km's specially when car goes in the narow streets the car starts knocking when accelerator is depressed to increase the speed lets say from 15Km's/hrs upword.
The knocking sound comes from engine and to reduce the knock I have to stop pushing the accelerator pedal and slowly pressing it again until the car speeds up. I have learnt one thing with expeience that when the engine starts knocking I shift the automatic gear to "S" postion from normal drive "D" position. I can immediatly feel the power and there is no knocking sound but after gaining speed upto 50 to 60 Km's it gives you the sound that the engine is runnung in low gears so I have to change it back to "D" again and it works fine till I reduce the speed around 15 to 20 Km's and then the same knocking will appear again.
Please note their is no engine check light on the display.
I have done the following things to rectify the fault but no results.
I have changed engine oil, sparkplugs,airfilter,oil filter.
Throtal body was cleaned.
In idel condition when engine is running while pressing the acclerator I have checked the exhost and I have seen no smoke.
Please help me out regarding the problem

AoA,
Brother the engine is not knocking because of any fault. This knocking is due to low octane number fuel used in Pakistan.

In a manual petrol car, if you accelerate suddenly on wrong (or larger) gear, for example I decelerate and come to 20 Km\h and I have got the ride in fourth gear, it will start knocking if I'll push at the accelerator. The same situation is happening with you too. When you shift to "B", which means low gears, the knocking stops. But because the car is in "B" mode it cannot shift to higher gears. So, on increased speed you need to shift to "D".

As far as I can see, every thing is normal in your ride. Just simply put high octane in it. You will feel a big difference.

Best of luck,
regards

@a4aatif

Where did you change your transmission oil in Karachi? I plan to change mine too later but need to find a reliable person. Wanna do it properly with the original gaskets o ring etc. The guy I go to scan my car from showed me the wrong filler point for putting in the fluid so now I'm reluctant to go to him for the job. I had posted this in another thread here :

Bro this knocking sound is very common. I have heard this sound so many times in 2006 and up models. This is because the engine is only three valve and requires to generate power. and if the fuel isn't satisfactory then the knocking will occur.

It is nice that you are not hearing it Most of my known contacts complain about the engine knock on low octane fuel. But its good you are not having it. Still I will recommend you to get high just two or three liters of high octane after every couple of refills.

Best of luck

Thanks boss

So that's why i didnt hear it on the 2004 model. Maybe now I will hear on the 2007 model

What I do is after every 2 refils with petrol I put Rs.500 hi octane and Rs.500 super. Is that ok?

PS: You are becoming a Vitz expert I see

Yes that will be great. After two refills just put Rs. 500 high octane.

EXPERT is a very big word. isnt it? I think we are very small for that (at least me)

Unfortunately every where in the world where ever japanease car is imported this problem happens. You require a FM radio band extender. I do not know if it is available in Pakistan but people on internet talk about it a lot. Check this link for details:
Install FM Bank Extender

This link states:

"FM Band Expanders are used in Japanese import cars, as the radios installed in Japan have a frequency band different to the rest of the world - Japan uses the 76-90Mhz radio range and the international FM band covers 88MHz to 108MHz."

As people do not encourage it's use (I do not know why, may be because of it's cost) you can buy a new radio.

Hope this helps.
