I had no knocking or anything just 1day the oil pressure light came on i drove it for about a minute and then it was loads of ticking noisesas if a radiator was heating up so I turned engine off luckily. This was on a 2ltr sline I thought they were bulletproof i guess not so its a new turbo new chain and a new oil pump
