Hey guys. So as I was coming home yesterday on the highway, I started hearing a ticking sound coming from the engine.
Got home and looked up that it could have been the oil level and mine was low so I added oil. The ticking since stayed and now smoke is pouring out the tailpipe. Not sure where something is wrong. I just got a catback exhaust installed two daa ago but it wasn't having problems at all so I don't think it's that. Also read it could be a leak somewhere but i don't know why so much smoke would be given off for that. |

if you ran low on oil and its ticking/knocking, chances are you have damaged bearings and the engine needs to be rebuilt
