Pinking under load?

Cheers all. I'm in Brighton although the car was bought from the Horsham (West Sussex) area. In 3 hours hopefully I will have some fault codes. I have read and re-read the warranty and because of the car I have as good as the top cover with a £2500 maximum claim. It's 'The autogroup' by the way. My cover is good for a new head, skim and gasket etc as well as diagnostics. I'm taking it calm right now, even though I have to lose as good as a days pay plus 100 miles of super unleaded for a round trip to the dealer.
Advice noted regarding the compression check and leak down.....
Vines in Redhill (Surrey) or Munich Legends spring to mind off the top of my head if any major work has to be done.
Thanks for the advice....
