Noises problem
2000 Chevy Cavalier 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

A seller is selling a 2000 Chevy Cavalier with a 2.2 Liter 4-cyclinder engine. The seller said that the car ran just perfect until He changed the oil 2 weeks ago and then the engine knocking started. What could be the problem with an oil change making an engine start to knock?

Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge,if normal replace the oil pressure switch. If abnormal could mean oil pump and/or engine bearing.
