Changed the oil & rotated tires on KT's cobalt Sat. morning and I swear it had a rod knock(2 knocks) after restarting it to check the oil level. Sounds fine after those 2 knock I wonder if it was more the timing chain. Yours could be junk anyway I'd do a little more listening to the bottom end before tossing the whole thing.

155 vs 74 hp Mirage is a pretty good jump, my SG says I'm making 50 hp at 2000 rpm and 100 at 4000 I'm liking a Mirage for my XFE's replacment but think I'm going to buy another Cobalt to replace the Altima or Stratus first.
