My 1999 buick century limited is knocking and tapping real bad, but not smoking or cutting out.

Asked by Orion_1292 Mar 14, 2017 at 12:24 AM about the Buick Century

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1 Answer

Tapping might just be loose hydraulic lifters but knocking might be bad rod bearings. I think your engine needs a rebuild.
