FRS Rocker arm issues? Or rod knock?
This sound seems to be coming from cylinder 3, checked with a mechanics stethoscope to find the source. Anyone have a idea?

Well, there are two modes of rocker arm failure that are known. It either spits it out in which case you will probably have a CEL for engine missfire along with other possible issues. Or the axle can slide out. I have never seen the axle issue and don't know what the exact symptoms are. I can't imagine the rocker staying in place for long if that is the case. Doesn't sound like rod knock.
Is this an MT or AT car? Have you stuck a stethoscope to the bell housing?

So far it's been doing this for a little while, it didn't seem like rod knock to me and I know there are rocker arm issues, where they make stoppers for them. So far I haven't checked the bell housing, it is a AT for the time being till I do a swap
