I WAS DRIVING UP A HILL WHEN I HEARD A KNOCKING NOISE AND MY CAR STOP ON THE HILL. IT WILL START BUT IT KNOCKS. THERE IS OIL IN IT, HAS NO OIL LEEKS. OIL LEVELS WAS CHECK BY 3 PEOPLE BEFORE IT WAS TAKEN TO THE SHOP. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE CAR. BUT WHERE DID IT GO WHEN THERE WAS OIL IN IT BEFORE IT WAS TOWED THERE. 2 QUESTIONS, WHAT DOES IT SOUND LIKE THE PROBLEM IS AND WHO CAN YOU TRUST?
