02 GTP Engine knocking

**mintygp** · 09-07-2014

Hey guys I need help, I just bought a 2002 GTP with 80,000 miles. The oil level is just under full. I was driving just now and then I heard a knocking and squeaking from engine area. Shut off car, I can turn it can on. The knocking or tapping gets louder with higher rpm. I bought this car and test drove it and went good. This is my second day driving it.

Never really matters how you drive it or when you drive or if you drove it on a tuesday with sunshine, when they spin a bearing they spin a bearing. It's always just out of the blue and no real warning at all, which sucks because it always means new motor time.
