Why is my Vauxhall Corsa's engine making knocking noises?

I recently noticed that my Vauxhall Corsa's engine has started making loud knocking noises. This is not a constant noise, but it occurs sporadically while driving or idling. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it? Is it safe to continue driving my car with this problem?

The knocking noise could be due to a number of reasons, such as low oil level, worn out engine bearings, or damaged exhaust components. It is important to get your car inspected by a mechanic to determine the exact cause and fix it before it leads to further damage. In the meantime, avoid driving at high speeds and try to reduce the load on your engine.

I had a similar issue with my Corsa and it turned out to be a faulty fuel pump. It is best to take your car to a certified Vauxhall service center for diagnostics and repairs. Don't ignore this issue as engine knocking can lead to serious engine damage if not addressed promptly.

If your Corsa has high mileage, the knocking noise could be a sign of worn out engine parts. In this case, a complete engine overhaul or replacement may be necessary. Avoid revving the engine too hard and stick to regular maintenance to prolong the life of your Corsa.
