I had a car that did that years ago. to cut to the chase it finally made a real loud knock when one of the big ends came out through the side of the motor. the cam was broken in about 5 places and the sump looked like some one had fired a missile launcher through it. it could be a piston Little end shaft or bearing about to give up the ghost or the piston might be ceasing or a big end bearing may be packing it in. Perhaps you just need oil.
