What should I do if my Ford Focus's engine is making strange noises?

I recently noticed that my Ford Focus's engine is making strange noises, like a knocking sound. I'm not sure what could be causing this and I'm worried it could be a serious issue. Does anyone have any tips for troubleshooting this problem or advice on what I should do?

Hi Samantha, it's never a good sign when your car's engine starts making unusual noises. It's important to address this issue as soon as possible before it potentially leads to bigger problems. I would recommend bringing your Ford Focus to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection and diagnosis.

Hey Samantha, I had a similar issue with my Ford Focus and it turned out to be a loose spark plug. It was an easy fix and the noise went away after tightening it. Might be worth checking if that's the cause for your engine noise as well.

Hi Samantha, I suggest checking your engine oil levels as well. If they are low, it could be causing the engine to make unusual noises. Make sure to top up if needed and keep an eye on the oil levels in the future.
