Sounds like a new engine is needed. I would not run it with it sounding that way.
Pull the oil pan see what you find.

Sounds like rod knock to me.

keep guessing

Belt flopping around in the bay?

Turbo flew apart?


Steve

Someone locked in the trunk?

I've heard an exhaust sound like that when a baffle got loose.

Just a really lumpy cam

all good answers but no one has it right so far....

I once had an alternator sound like that just before part of it flew through the hood.

The hamsters nuts are dragging on wheel.

or

Loose exhaust.

or

Bad WP.

Water pump going or crank pulley loose

DOHC?

Timing belt?

convert it to diesel?

or

crack manifolds

or

WAIT!!!!!! PISTON SLAP!!!!!!!!

Thats an odd one. I can't wait to find out what it is. I love games like this

I would have guessed many of the options already mentioned, but I'll throw out... maybe a broken egr valve housing allowing the thing to bounce around with exhaust pulses?

sounds a lot like the baffle in my muffler did.

Spark plug came out?

believe or not but its the T.O.B I have never heard one so loud before.

What is T.O.B.?

Throw Out Bearing on the clutch I am guessing he means.

Anything I might say is probably worth what you paid for it, so treat it accordingly!

yes throw out bearing

mustve broken a finger of the clutch arm and no one of them is banging against the clutch pressure plate.

OUCHY!!!

nope don't think so cause there is no noise the the clutch pushed in.

call me crazy but I've never had a noisy tob with no pressure applied, usually the other way around, right when applied. that is a nasty noise... Are you sure the crank doesnt have endplay? Just a thought.

i'll know more when I take her apart.

Sounds strange because the sound does not change frequency with throttle changes would think something loose and rattling. Perhaps a loose heat shield somewhere. Come on tell us what you found..

Ok for anyone who miss understood me the transmission makes noise with it in neutral, and quiets down when clutch peddle is pushed in. For all I know it could be the transmission i'll know more when i pull it apart. After all it is only a getrag 282 that took a beating from hell
