Usually worn out rod bearings. This can be caused by wear or repeated pinging. Usually, if there is knocking in the engine, you are not getting adequate oil to the engine. What is happening is that there is no oil to lubricate the rods and pistons as they are moving inside the head and so it is causing the knocking noise. If you have filled you oil and still hear the knocking, the main filter in the oil pan could be clogged. This happened to me. You do not want it to go on too long because you will blow your engine.
