You're complaining because a diesel engine pings?

LOL, I know, but I've had plenty of diesels, and this is my 3rd 6.7, but then again not a 2011, this one seems way less snappy, and pings way more than usual,something's not right, can't put my finger on it.

Are you building boost? Anything unusual about your exhaust sound? Any unusual smoke coming out of the tailpipe?

Clean your map sensor, you'll need a 7 mm socket and careful hands. Gently tap to remove built up carbon in the sensor itself, clean with carb cleaner, clean the mounting hole, and reinstall. See if that makes a difference
