Rattling sound coming from engine?

SouthArk370Z

There is about 1 quart/liter between the high and low marks. If you added the full quart, you are now about a half quart over filled.


That could be a lot of things. Find someone that know a bit about cars/engines and ask them to listen to it.

You can pinpoint the source of the sound by holding one end of a paper towel tube, piece of garden hose, &c to your ear and moving the free end around the engine compartment until the noise is the loudest. Be VERY careful when doing this as there are moving, hot, and hot moving parts under the hood.

Edit: If you can't hear the noise when parked and revving the engine, it's probably something small rattling around in the breeze, eg, brake shield.
