LSPI short for low speed pre-ignition is an current issue for the next generation engine like the new 1.5t on the new honda civic's....
it means when the car is driving at low speed, the engine knocks...
most car manufacturer are still working on a fix on this issue (it's very serious) but one thing they found out is that engine oil is part of the problem.
oil with high calcium level will most likely contribute to this phenomenon, this is verified by ford, toyota, chevron & SAE..
if you google LSPI calcium oil, you will find a lot of actual studies & article about this issue...
so, when you choose an engine oil, make sure they are API certified and try to find their VOA (virgin oil analyst) & UOA (used oil analyst) and make sure the calcium level is low.
