So my 2000 dodge neon oil light has been coming on and everytime it did I put a quart or a little less of oil in it. I have been keeping a close eye on it and today it started making a funny noise like clicking I asked my dad to look at it and he told me that he thinks that I blew a piston or that I ruined a rod in the engine, how do I fix this and around how much would it cost?
