Neon Rod Knock

Replace the bearing, assuming it really is rod noise.

Matt

I would if I could......BUT do to the BUSH....I can't afford to get it DONE !

Well, heavier oil won't repair a bad bearing, assuming that is even your problem. From your incoherent response above, hard to tell what your problem really is.

Matt

Yes indead; I do belevieve that it is a rod knock.......ALL I asked for was a little advise to see if anyone knew of anything that would help for a short time. You have been as friendly as George the Bush at a UNION MEETING...4 cly Chrysler engines are know to have bearing problems. I never would have bought this piece of crap.....It was a gift from a well meaning friend.

Yes, either drive it to the Republican Convention or give it to Michael Moore.

And then decide what cheese goes best with your whine.

Not a whine, A hedge cutter for bushes......

It is now pretty obvious that he really wasn't looking for a solution, just an excuse to rant about Chrysler and politics.

Matt

Lower the price and let the buyer hear the noise -- you'll sleep better at night and will avoid pesky threats of legal action.

Engine snot, a/k/a "motor honey". It will not help for long.

Only in your head.

Nothing will help a real rod knock for a short time (or a long time, or any time). IF its really a rod knock, the bearing will fail soon. Period.

No, they DON'T have bearing problems, actually. You're as foolish with your car as you are with your politics, it appears to me. :-p
