''Can you tell to me since i am deaf man about there is still ''knocking'' in the engine?''

Honestly, the engine does sound to me like its gone 'hard' or over the top with compression and the last movie shows rather dark oil - an indicator at times of too much compression.

The weird intermittent 'knock' sound seems to be still there but don't trust just one opinion gained from over the internet, I would like to hear from others here what they think also!

Thanks mate.<br type=''_moz''/>
Yep it's not a happy diesel! I'd guess that the "knock" is the rod big and little ends pounding themselves into another shape.
