Since you're using 93 octane, you probably don't have fuel detonation. The knocking is more likely to be a mechanical knock - meaning that something is definitely wrong with your engine. Take it in to a mechanic and see whats wrong with it. You might have a failed timing chain tensioner.

Replacing the MAF will not help in this case.
