Re: Noise from engine

Rod knock, likely, especially if the frequency increases with engine rpm increase

Edit:some exhaust leaks can also sound like knock

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I can't hear anything over here.





Was the oil low?

Does the oil look like chocolate milk?

When was the most recent oil change?

Re: Noise from engine

Pop your hood with the engine running, turn the throttle rotor by hand, see if you can kinda pinpoint the general area it's coming from.
