You need to be more specific in your question. What year/make/model and engine size/configuration do you have? If you dont know this then just take it in. Does it knock at idle? Hard acceloration? Decceloration? Only when cold? Only when hot? Info like this is very valuable when trying to diagnose a problem, but i would first look at your rotating assembly. (aka crankshaft, rods, and pistons) One or more bearing may have excessive clearance, the wrist pins may be scored, etc. The easiest way too look at it is to take off the oil pan and visually inspect everything.
