Good evening, all, I had my Explorer ST for almost 2 years and loving it until a few days ago. I have a bad knock right off idle up to 3500rpm. Wont do it under load, seems to run perfect but dont want to drive it if its a rod knock. Trying to get the dealer to pickup and diagnose. What you guys think ?

First things first…how much oil is in it.
Second things second…rod knock won’t go away as rpm goes up…it’ll get worse.
