[QUOTE="Rodney Leary, post: 980801, member: 69411"] Similar incident here. Wife's Santa Fe was at the body shop to fix a damaged fender due to a collision a few weeks ago. She picked up the car and brought home and I could hear a loud knocking from the engine. (Not noticeable before dropping off to body shop). Open the hood to find the oil cap removed and wedged under some wires (holding it in place). Checked the oil and it was low. Filled oil, replaced back, and drove around the block and it sounded much better. So either the body shop removed the oil cap for some unknown reason (they deny touching it). Or.... the shop we had it at 2 MONTHS before this to get a tune up (plugs and wires) took it off and left it off, and it's been off this whole time. :banghead: Just odd that we didn't hear the noise until it came back from body repair.
