    I had a similar issue with my first r56 S but it turned out to be a fouled spark plug was causing knock at peak boost

    That sounds like a possibility. How did you diagnose that the spark plug was the cause?

    Plugged in the snap on and it was registering knock. So that narrows it down to bad fuel, bad plug, bad coil pack
