Engine knock/No oil
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
My 09 XF 133,000 miles developed a loud knocking noise yesterday on my way home from work. I pulled over and checked my oil, there was none touching the bottom of the stick. I changed the oil in January (10 months ago) everything was good after that. The noise sounds like this jaguar video from YouTube
. I took off the passenger side valve cover (where the noise is coming from) and it dosent look like secondary timing chain tensioner is damaged, it's a newer one that is not all pastic only the top and bottom. Im going to get a socket to spin the crank and see if i can see anything unusal. Im begining to think it's something to do with the pistons and valves. Any ideas?

If there is no oil in the engine, there is probably significant damage to the main and rod bearing shells.
You must determine where the oil has gone. Did it leak out? When was the last time it was checked? How many kilometres/miles has the vehicle been driven since the oil was last changed?

129,000I filled it with 7.5 qts, I have only driven 4000 miles since then. I have no oil leaks or evidence of a leak. Weird right.

I'm going to double check in a day or 2, but if it is the rods or bearings will I need to pull the engine? The book states in order to do pistons the engine will need to be on a stand.
