1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse Manual

My sons car had an oil change only a couple of weeks ago and now he checked his oil and it is almost empty but there doesn't appear to be any leaks??? Also when he is driving he hears a clicking sound and it increases with higher rpm and decreases at lower rmp.???

I guess thats 2 questions.

Hi there,

Oil issue first, how many miles does the car have on it? did they use synthetic oil? dose the click sound as if it is from the top of the engine, see your 2 questions and raise you one...lol

Hi Mark,

The car has around 160,000 miles and no regular oil was used. The noise he is not sure where it came from but when he added the oil is went away. And I am having him check the oil level daily to see how fast the car is going through it.
