Knocking is never normal. But Nissan motors are known for not being smooth/silent when compared to other Japanese makes.

Take it to the dealer and let them deal with it.

What fuel have u been using?

91 octane, its not the sound of detonation. its just a random knock every once in a while. and yes, its full of oil, 5w30 pennzoil plat.

it goes away when just a little throttle is given
