Yeah, you've basically just totally knackered it by not acting on the warning noises! Roll eyes

What sort of clunking noise was it? Sounds like the bottom end has dismantled itself

reckon bottom end as i had this happen aswell, drain some oil see if there is any little metalic bits in it, or drop the sump, bit of a pain but only way to really find out, as if it has damaged the big ends u will have loads of metal crap in ya engine, does it sound like spanners going round in a washing machine
