On my way home tonight from a long day, I was about to turn onto my street and I heard a new sound from my car. At about 2500 rpm, there is a ton of clatter coming from the engine. When I got home I popped the hood, and seeing as I don't have my tools here at the house, did the old screwdriver trick to kind of hear where the noise is coming from. from the front of the car between the 3rd and 4th coil (from the pass side) there is a ton of clatter. I decided to check my oil again and found that it was down about 2 quarts. I had checked it yesterday and it was perfect. so I am confused as to whats going on. My car is a 2003 2.3 Duratec with 56K on it. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Now he can go home and do a search on google to figure out whats under the hood
