I have been having some problems with my car and i have asked a mechanic and one of my friends what the problem may be. The problem is: i have notice that around a month ago my motor started making a ticking nosie that would get louder as i accelerated. I thought that maybe my oil was low so i checked it and it was.(just a tad though) So the knocking noise went away for awhile but started coming back. Now(which is about a month later) the motors knocks real lound especially when i hit the gas. So i was just wondering what this might be and can i do anthing about it beside get another moter. Oh the two guys i mentioned earlier said that something was wrong with my rods, something about some bearings or something and that if i keep driving i am going to throw a rod.
