Hi. I have a 2004, 4 cylinder Toyota Corolla LE Automatic, with about 67,000 miles. Recently I my oil indicatorstarted to flicker on and off, when I check the oil stick I was almost out. So I added a little bit of oil to the car, so that it kept me going, then a week later the light started to flicker again, this time the oil indicator light remained on, so again I added a little bit more oil, but the oil indicator light still remained on. Now my engine is making a clack clack clack clack noise everytime I push down on the excellerator, and my check engine light has gone on. When I pick up speed the noise leave, but when I stop and try to start up again that is when you hear the clack clack clack clack noise. Can you please help me out.

Hi there,

You will have to get a code read to establish what has set a fault code. As for the noise, You better change the oil &filter, and have an oil pressure test done, you may have suffered internal damage due to lack of engine lubricant.
