Why is my Ford Mondeo engine making a knocking noise?

I recently purchased a used Ford Mondeo and noticed that my engine has been making a loud knocking noise. Should I be worried and what could be causing this issue?

It is possible that your engine is low on oil or that there could be an issue with the engine bearings. I would recommend taking it to a trusted mechanic for a proper diagnosis.

I had the same issue with my Ford Mondeo and it turned out to be a faulty timing chain tensioner. It's a common issue with these cars but luckily it's an easy fix. Make sure to get it checked as soon as possible.

Check your engine mounts as well. They could be worn out and causing your engine to knock. Also, make sure to get your car serviced regularly to prevent any future issues.
