Recently I have notcied a slight nocking noise in what sounds like the lower half of the engine. The engine is a 2002 3.0L Flex engine that has 136,000 miles on it and runs great with no previous problems. I changed the oil yesterday and noticed that there was a fair amount of Gold/Copper colored particles (metel) in the oil. What would this be? My guess its particles from a bearing race, but not sure. Also, in the past I noticed my oil pressure gauge would go very eratic after running on the expressway then comeing to a stop when exiting the eway, this problem has seemed to subside. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
