[QUOTE="soccerman002, post: 14815666, member: 86800"] I was hoping it wasn't anything in the bottom end b/c I know the car has never been starved for oil. I only put a few thousand miles per year on it, so the oil changes end up occurring with very little mileage as I don't go over 6 months without a change. Am I running the risk of damaging anything if the car is driven? Right now I don't plan on the car moving except into the garage once I finish up a brake job on my truck. Is this something that a novice could diagnose/work on, with the engine still in the car? If I went ahead and had a shop look at it and it turns out to be something in the head or w/the timing, is it possible to put a ballpark figure on that work? Sorry for all the questions - this just came out of nowhere and I've got a bunch of other stuff going on right now, this is the last thing I needed. [/QUOTE]
