On the freeway heading down to the motorshow on Sunday, bit of a knocking sound in the engine. This sound progressively got worse, and in the end i had to get a tow truck to take me home.
Just had a mechanic look at the car and take off the rocker-cover (i think thats it) and he said along the lines of that the piston has a crack in it.
The car does start, but with a LOUD knocking sound, i do not drive this car. As it is stationed at my parents house.
I do believe the car was running low on oil, but not empty. As thought it did just register on the dip stick.
As the comment "another piston could go", if i were to get the engine rebuilt, another piston could come up with the same problem. Meaning yet again i would have to fix this.
Thank You
