Could this mean trouble S40-V40 2000

Hi there

My car pink's (spelling ?). In any event the car pinks under load - acceleration. The dealer said this is normal as the car advances it's timing to that stage to increase power and protect the motor. Is this true and does it not cause damage.

Pinking can't be good for the motor.

Thanks

Pieter.
