The radiator fluid and oil both leak out. And when I drove it 1000km from calgary to vancouver it kept overheating every 1-2 hours where I would keep feeling it with water. It also started have a faint knocking sound when I accelerate from a stop. Is this going to cost me alot to get fix and is it a bigger problem then just the leaks

Wheres the oil leaking?

If its going in with antifreeze with oil or oil with antifreeze I would suspect a cracked block or blown headgasket.

Youll need to do a compression test to verify what it is.

How hot is it running? How about excessive white exhaust?
