did you delet the code from your computers history
if not it will keep coming back
i think you can still do this with yours
disconect your negative battery terminal for a couple seconds or even a minute
then reconnect it that should remove the code
if not your gonna have to get a code reader and go into the computer and erase the code

What code are you getting exactly ...?

Would it be possible that you're knock sensor is actually reading .... knock?!

Make sure your timing is correct. It's possible some pre-detonation is what's actually making your code show up.
