Hi:
A knock in the engine isn't good news. It could be a main bearing or rod bearing. Also, it could be something in the transmission or a bad accessory. You could remove the serp belt and start the car to see if the sound is still there. If it goes away, the problem is one of the belt driven accessories. However, do not allow the car run more than a few seconds. It will overheat and may cause more damage.

Let me know what you find.
Joe
