    knocking sound

    yeah my car sounds kinda loud/differnet from the outside, i think its coming from under the valve cover and its a constant fast knocking but its not too loud, its just an annoying sound that makes it sound like a shitty car, can anyone tell me whats wrong? i took it to some place and they said i might have a mest up valve but i dont know, maybe i just need a tune up?

    open your oil cap while tha car is on and listen to the sound if it sounds like it is coming from the valve cover that what it is. you need your valves ajusted
