For anyone who is asking! Can this be fixed?!? Yes, I've replaced rod and main bearing on an 88 dodge ram and it ran just fine after I replaced the bearing.
This is rod knock, not engine knock. Engine knock is the air fuel mixutre igniting when it shouldn't. Usually, this is caused by too much cylinder pressure or not enough octane, and this causes a knocking or pinging sound. Many modern vehicles have knock sensors that can detect this and the ecm can retard ignition timing to prevent catastrophic engine failure.
Or could I possibly send u a video of mines I’m a dad just got this and my new job I loose this truck I loose a lot I’m trynna get to the bottom of this
I have a Mercedes B200 2008 that recommends octane 91 fuel and higher but I've been using the lower grade octane (85 or 88) since I bought the car in 2009. Is it good or bad? Should I switch to higher octane or its too late?
Don’t need too but I’ve notice that since I switch the engine sounds better and you get a slight performance boost with more mpg so I would say do the switch
Dude woke up and decided to make the greatest, more concise video on engine knocking on UA-cam. Really good video
Thank you bro, much appreciated!
Good explanation and in a very short time. Thanks!
Thank you!
Are all cars like this ??!
@godbong4205 When they are knocking? Yes
This great explanation ever, straight and simple
Thank you, Appreciated!
This video has helped me so much and understanding an engine, even though it was very little information. Thank you.❤
You’re welcome
Always wanted this visual explanation! Well done sir. Thank you!
Sure no problem!
Better teacher than my dad
I appreciate that but don’t tell him, lol
Thank you Mr Pacino
No problem 😉

Of course, anything can be fixed, depends on you experience or pocket book.
On brand new wood chipper, when does the oil kick in so the knocking can stop?
I don’t work on wood chippers but if it’s a combustion engine the oil pumps the oil immediately
Thanks a lot brother
No problem!

People associate rod knock with engine knock, that's why I made it that why.
Around how much would this cost to be replaced if so
Waiting for video

Yes post a video and I’ll take a listen
This man is the opposite of a yapper, every word had meaning
Thank you! Very much appreciated!
Is this a serious problem or could be repaired?pls tell me
In most cases it is. If your vehicle is making this rod knock noise it means the engine would either have to be replaced or rebuilt.
It's very serious. It can destroy the engine.
What if just replace bearings? Would be better or still needs rebuild?
Can’t just replace bearings if crankshaft is damaged. Needs rebuild
Is it an expensive fix ?
It can be because either engine has to be rebuilt or replaced.
I have a Mercedes B200 2008 that recommends octane 91 fuel and higher but I've been using the lower grade octane (85 or 88) since I bought the car in 2009. Is it good or bad? Should I switch to higher octane or its too late?
The short answer is if it "Recommends" higher 91 octane you DON"T have the use it. IF the vehicle 'Requires" the higher octane then you MUST use it.
Don’t need too but I’ve notice that since I switch the engine sounds better and you get a slight performance boost with more mpg so I would say do the switch
I have a 2018 Camaro and replaced the engine because of engine knock and 2 months later today it started knocking again
I couldn't tell you the problem, I'm not there to see what went wrong?
Is this expensive to fix. Can i fix this myself under car remove oil pan?
Normally yes, but engine has to come apart to see the damage. Just dropping the oil pan is not enough.
@@Motorcarnut 😢
My engine cut off cause of this & im trying to save it
You have to bring it to a mechanic asap to avoid any more damage
@@Motorcarnut thank you I appreciate your feedback a lot !!
No problem, good luck!
