my car had not been properly serviced, oil was almost gone bc oil washer but not put back by the mechanic who changed the oil..oil was leaking and maintenance light came on which was odd bc I had just serviced it..then check engine light came on after a few weeks and I know I need to diagnostic, but what might be common problem if I'm hearing rattling below the car when accelerating..car gets moments when engine gets shakey as I'm idle..I just added two qt. of oil bc oil was almost gone

If you run engine with low oil, you take chance if ruining main bearings.

Check oil pressure with mechanical gauge, if low then main bearings would be suspect.
