It sound like the o2 sensor. Take it to an auto zone and they will put the computer on it for free. It will tell you what is wrong with it. I hope this helps.

SOURCE: engine knocks like diesel

A loud knocking sound could be a variety of things. On the top of the list is Bad connecting rod bearing and main bearings in the bottom end of the engine. Bad lifters may also be a problem. I had to burst your bubble but a loud noise in your engine, like you describe may be alot of pre-mature internal engine wear may be cause by lack of maintenance. You should have it check by a professional before you invest money into fixing it. Remember if the cost of the repairs exceeds that retail value of the vehicle. Its time for a new one. Good Luck

The run rough problem is due a cyl.mis firing,it becaused buy a bad plug,plug wire,coil,or even the ing.module. the servive eng.light flashing is warning you that you have a cyl.misfire that can cause damaget to your catltic converter if you continue to drive it.with may lead to why you think you have a exhaust problem,it may be colgged.

Replace the oil sending unit and if it continues,have your oil pump replaced before it goes completely

My 2002 chevy impala's "low engine oil" light was flashing red and making a ringing sound. I checked the oil level and it needed to have a quart added, but it still had some oil on the dipstick. I added...

Yes it is safe to drive it now. But i would recheck your oil level before you drive it. As long as the oil level is where it is supposed to be, then you will be fine.

I have a 2002 bora tdi 100 s and the engine is quite tappy and loud, is there anything i can do to quiet the engine down or stop the tapping noise??? the engine itself runs and goes fine, i have been told...

hi,the first thing to do is an engine flush,then refill with10/40 or 20/50 oil, semi sythetic,not forgeting to change the filter.this particular engine is quite loud but the noise should die down after about 15/20 secs if its tappy.i would also reccomend adding wynns or another oil additive to help the self adjusting tappets quiten down.An oil blockage would show up as a loud knock (big end rumble)and the oil warning light would show on the dash.
after you do the oil change rev the engine to 3000 for 30 secs.this will help to get the tappets right.

VW Golf Mk4 1.4 16v Oil Light Warning on Dash

Measure your oil at normal operating temp, without the engine running of course. This will give you a more accurate reading once the oil has circulated in the system.

The system works like this:
  • With the ignition on, the oil pressure indicator light on the dash should come on and flash. Once the engine is started, the light should go out and stay out as long as the engine is running.
  • If the oil pressure drops below approximately 0.3 bar or 5 psi when the engine is running below 2000 rpm, the light will flash.
  • If the oil pressure drops below approximately 1.8 bar or 27 psi when the engine is running above 2000 rpm for more than 3 seconds, the indicator light will flash and the buzzer will sound.
If either this two warnings occur:
  • The engine should be switched off immediately and the oil level should be checked.

OIL GAUGE IS JUMPY, READS EMPTY AFTER TRUCK WARMS UP (5MIN)...DIP STICK SAYS FULL OIL. LIFTERS A LITTLE TAPPY AT THAT POINT...

The gauge indicates pressure, not oil level. Sounds like worn bearings or pump. lifters getting louder indicate starving from low pressure as well.

Oil engine is flashing 5 times after starting the engine

change the sensor...however, I bet you are using very thin oil or you oil pump is going bad.  Have the oil pressure tested.
