Please forgive my ignorance, but I'm at a loss right now. My mechanic replaced an oil pan on Monday. When I got the car back, I heard this loud clacking sound as I reached the top of each gear (it's a manual transmission). He took it back and said one of his guy's put in 10W20 as opposed to 10W40. He changed it out, but the noise never disappeared. The engine sounded HORRIBLE! He tried to replace some bearings, but the noise never disappeared. He suggested driving it and it might disappear. Anyway, I'm driving it tonight and the engine just shuts off on the highway. The engine sounded perfect before this guy touched it!!!!! I'm convinced that he destroyed my engine.....but I'm looking for some confirmation from some of you who are more technically minded. Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
