Issues with BM3 "knocking"

Hey all,
I'd like some help analyzing these data logs. I'm running Stage 2 E30 on an N63TU. I'd like some advice as the data logs say they're detecting knock.

I took to a shop and they said according to ISTA it is not knocking and to disregard it. I personally think that's BS.

I talked with BM3 and they sent me a test map and are basically ignoring me at this point.

I recently replaced boost solenoids and fixed all boost leaks. Car drives a lot better but knock still persists. I cannot feel any knock or hear any. Also not hitting target boost but that's a separate issue.

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any help would be appreciated.

Mods are as follows:
Stage 2 E30 BM3
Stage 2 XHP
Charge Pipes
Catless DP's
Arm Front Mount Intakes
N63 Intake oil cooling valve
Lower temp thermostat
3.5 bar pre throttle TMAP's
NGK 97506 at 0.22" gap
Delphi Coils
Muffler delete

Recently Replaced the following (Less than 100 miles ago):
Pre throttle TMAP's
Plugs
Coils
All O2 sensors
Ran Liqui-Moly Fuel System Cleaner
Fixed all boost leaks
Replaced both boost solenoids

have you tried ruling out the tune? Flash back to stock map and then log again?

This is definitely a good idea. Get some good baseline logs on stock map. Most tuners will ask for it anyway (if you're trying to identify an issue).

Beyond that, I hope someone who knows these motors and tuning can/will assist you and keep us all posted.

Since I don't know much about the actual tuning, I can't really provide any further advice other than don't push the car until you are confident it's running safely! Good luck!
