Thread: Engine making knocking noise

My engine almost got rebuilt and Its been fine for about a month. Now my car is knocking under the hood and its loud. I checked the oil, but it said it was full. I don't know what it is and I put 800 dollars into getting this car fix and I've only had it for 4 months. Its got 109 miles on it. So I'm wondering can it be repaired or am I gonna have to get a new motor, or junk it?

we are going to need a lot more info. like what was done for 800 bucks? and why was it done.

You almost got it rebuilt, or you just got it rebuilt? The loud knocking could be rod knock. I would say the rebuild was shoddy work.

Get a video, a list of what was replaced, and what was wrong in the first place.

Supercharged or na?

As stated above we need more details, It could be rod knock,broken/cracked flywheel,bearings on the water pump,alternator, or even tensioner.... If you're SC'd it could be the coupler and so on. Please be more descriptive. Also if you're saying almost rebuilt I'm assuming you had all the gaskets replaced minus the head gaskets because it would cost right around what you paid for to have that work done at a shop....

**** I didn't see this post. So it sounds like your motor spun the bearings from coolant getting mixed in with the oil..... I would take your car back to who ever did the work and make them buy you a new motor.
