couple of things

firstly does your car have a fuel octane plug and if so it is set correctly
secondly check your EGR is working correctly
thridly check make sure its got the correct spark plugs
could be a faulty knock sensor,

could be a fair few things to be honest have to give a bit more information

try a higher octane fuel like BP ultimate see pricey but it might help you problemsolving

shell optimax and a good service.
