Jan 2013 The check engine amber light came on while driving on the interstate. All of a sudden the red warning light came on and the engine went into 'safe' mode. The motor was knocking extremely loud. Had the car towed to my home, where it is still. After changing oil,filter twice, the engine will start but makes a loud knocking in the back 3 cylinders. The engine and transmission are not leaking. The engine does not smoke. No compression loss on any cylinders. Possible spring broke? Pulling car into garage, taking out battery, air filter, intake and valve cover on back three cylinders. Will check lifters, tappets, also both cams.
