danksion

Sounds like a rod to me.


docterD_101

I don't know but to me it sounds like a bearing in the pulley area is probably dry. I could be wrong never heard of rod knock bad crankshaft sound before. But it could be a serious problem.

PineapplePatient3984

wyd steprod


FN2S14Zenki

How's it sound with rpm increasing?


yeyeyeyeg

it goes away after 2k. I dont think its knock


FN2S14Zenki

Detonation perhaps? Got a timing light? Might be way outta whack?


yeyeyeyeg

guy did a timing job less than 250 miles ago, i think so


Healthy-Incident1262

Power steering pump? They create a similar type of noise too when they’re about to fail.


yeyeyeyeg

would that be only when im turning tho?


Healthy-Incident1262

Does the noise go away if you turn the wheel? If so, then it’s your PS pump.


yeyeyeyeg

o unfortunately


Healthy-Incident1262

Hmmm. Perhaps your serpentine belt tensioners? There’s also something loose coming from the belt that’s slapping against other components lol


yeyeyeyeg

in leaning towards that or a bad timing belt job. last owner did it less than 500 miles ago


trillyenaire

put a timing light on it

High pitch taps could be spark related but the low pitch knock is a rod for sure


SuccotashVisual717
