hearing a lil engine slap
hey guys my car has about 67k miles on her. i just bought her about two months ago and only put 4k on it and ever since i started noticing a lil knocking. dont know if it was the oil or the gas but i put mobil1 and been using 91 octane chevron. any thoughts any ways of getting rid of this?,it doesnt get louder so its not a piston i hope but just at idle,thanks guys

i hate to keep saying this and being negative, but i heard a knocking to in low rpm start ups...like just driving from a light or stop or whatever....my oil psi was kinda low...and now ive got a shot bearing....it could be alot of things and until you find out where exactly its coming from you cant really tell....like i said mine made a little tapping or knocking sound only slightly noticable in low rpms...and its the bearings in the crankshaft....
