Hey guys there is a knocking sound coming from the engine under load and certain rpms. I recently took the engine cover off to do my coilpacks when i noticed this. With the cover on its very faint and not that noticeable. Heres the video links...

2nd video 100% rod knock. Not too late to fix it. Don’t drive it and don’t rev it like that anymore.

Oh my 😨

Oooo yesss. The case of the n54 rod knock problem that people continue to deny exists. Stop driving it immediately. Tow it to a shop or tear into it yourself.

Totally rod knock. Feuer is right, you can still save it and it wont be that hard to do.

Approx how much am i looking to fix it?

[trb1]

Are you mechanically inclined? $300 in parts, give or take. Would be substantially more expensive at a shop.

[Mustafa.e92]

If done at a shop a lot of money. Roughly around the labour to do turbos. Subframe has to come out.

1500 for parts and labor. You'll end up with a new oil pan gasket in the process. And be able to have a peek to see if there is any cylinder wear.

Remove oil filter and see if there are metal shavings.
