Thanks. What would you say if I also told you that up until now engine ran whisper quiet, now I hear a "sewing machine" noise with engine on and the check engine light (knock sensor) is intermittent, and other than adding oil every couple of weeks (garage could not find leak or evidence of burning oil), I have no other performance issues. Do you think it is just the sensor or valves/pistons are worn out?

Could be a valve adjustment but check engine light being on have a pro scan it. He can advise about noise as well.
