[scottyvEE3]

if you look at the first video, this is what my car sounds like when i turn it on. and sometimes it takes awhile to turn on i just keep craknking it. the second video thats how it sounded before the car actually stopped trying to move.

can someone tell me what the problem might be? or has anyone ever experienced this noise before. NOTE a week before this noise started happening my upper timing chain guard cracked.

i dont think the previous owner before me has done a oil change after a year of the car sitting in his driveway. when i first took off my valve cover to remove the cracked upper timing chain this is what it looks like..

Two words: rod knock. Time for a fresh motor.
