- My car has started to make an obnoxiously loud knocking noise in the engine (please
- excuse my direction of noise as I don't know too much about cars). The noise is
- coming from where you put the oil in on the left side on top. I have just had the
- engine (or whatever that is) taken apart by a mechanic. When he first heard the
- noise he thought it was a rocker arm, but it wasn't, so he checked the other usual
- parts that would cause such a noise (piston, and quite a few others I don't remember)
- but he can still not find what is cause the noise. The noise is steady and doesn't
- change rhythm, but gets louder the faster you go. It even makes the noise while in
- neutral.
-
- If you have any suggestions to what it could be please E-mail me.

- Thanks,

- Serena (Getting the impression that the micro chip is program to make that obnoxious noise at 70748 miles so you trade your car in)
