There is a knocking noise in my engine that started right after I got my oil changed. All maintenance has been done regularly, oil changes every 4 to 5 thousand miles. What could it be and what could have caused it. (My oil was overfilled if that changes anything)

Correct the oil level if that has not been done already, ensure that the oil filter is a high quality filter with an anti drain back valve fitted and get the oil pressure tested with a mechanical gauge and post the readings here, cold idle, hot idle and hot 1500RPM
