it also sounded like marbles in the oil pan smacking all the **** in their

 

I don't mean to pester but shafts? I don't doubt the person's experience but I have learned with old school mechanics.....with experience comes assumptions rather than diagnosis...

I don't know your level of mechanical skill but I assume you can do an oil change? Pull the oil filter off and cut it open. Use gloves and metal snips. Look for any kind of metal in the filter element or oil in the filter.

 

yes i can lol just not the guy able to put the motor back together the way it should and yes u really cant tell till u take it apart to see what broke

 

I hate taking my car to the shop for this reason... sometimes when I've taken cars into places that gave me the best price, I've had other issues arise.

I had a 2006 Chevy Malibu, I took it in for an oil change at a dealer in Wayne, MI where I bought it. I started talking with this black dude behind the counter about car audio. Next thing I know the torque converter goes at 40k. Then later in the spring, the catalytic converter is suddenly clogged.

 

well he owns his own shop im their every day helpin him do stuff

 

Just checking while remaining respectful. Better to diagnose the real problem before replacing something that might not need to be replaced.

 

i just tore mine apart, and i had a bearing spun....it sounded like a diesel tractor

 

thats true but theirs something bouncin around in the oil pan pretty bad

 

If there was a thrown rod you have no oil pressure, the only thing in the oil pan is oil, the oil pump pick up, and the bottom half of the crankshaft. My money is still on a busted flex plate, who would like some of this action?

 

I think you will have a difficult time taking bets...... so far everyone thinks flex plate

 

ya ok not trying to be a **** hole but the flex plate aint in the oil pan i and him well runing put a hand on the oil pan and could just feel what ever was broke smackin the bottom and sides of it really fast and hard and another thing is the two lower bolts on the timing cover pulled out well it was runnin y would they do that and we tighten them back up and after about a min they unthreaded again

 

The engine is metal. Vibrations and noises can be transmitted though metal.

It sounds like you have already made up your mind for what you are going to do, which is to pull out the engine.... how come you are asking us what we would do if you aren't going to listen?

 

not surprising seeing how you treat your jeeps...

 

sorry i just dont think its the flex plate but on that note dont i hve to take the motor out to change that to

 

No you only have to unbolt the transmission.
