Well I took my car for a trip, and probably the last. My engine starting knocking really bad. Before it was a tap, now it is definitely a hard knock. It sounds really bad. It is coming from around the valve cover but then again it is sort of from the middle of the engine, hard to tell. I just need some thought on what it might be not exact. So I can kind of get an estimate of how much this is going to cost to fix. Hopefully I don't need a new engine, it would be nice, but I don't have the money right now.
thanks in advance |

I agree, definately sounds like a rod bearing. I've heard that sound a few too many times. I'm willing to bet its prolly on number 1 rod cuz that seems to be the first to go but make sure to check all bearings.
