Consumer Description

2.0 HAS 73K MILES ON IT. ENGINE NOISY WHEN COLD START, LIKE A RATTLE AND KNOCK FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. OIL IS GOOD AND NO CODES. EVEN WHEN WARMED UP, THE ENGINE ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE MULTI PORT ENGINES MADE IN THE 80'S AND 90S WHEN ACCELERATING. KIND OF A 'WA WA WA WA WA' SOUND. TO ME, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS READY TO 'CHECK OUT'. SOMEONE TOLD ME IT COULD BE ROD BEARINGS.
