My 16 year old son just bought a 99 century w/3.1 and 20k actual miles. When first started it has a very loud rapping noise. One repair shop said it was a lifter and it would be $500-$1800 to fix. Any suggestions?? Thanks

make shurr oil is or has been changed and add a quart of lucas . if this dose not fix it then you wil have to go in side the engine and investagate.
