Sounds like rod bearings being chewed. Do an oil change and see if some metal shavings come out of the pan. If it does, a new engine is in the house, or if you can take apart your engine and decide which route to go. I would inspect the engine, see if any cracks exist, parts still all good and no Major damages. If you see a lot of damages, go no further and buy a new engine. That will save you lots of $$ and headache down the road.
