Ever since I got a jump start on my car it started getting loud and rattely when just started until it warmed up then black smoke started coming out when accelerating and was louder until it warmed up the engine management light came on a few days ago and now its loud all the time and I think its got heavy on the oil too I filled it half way between the max and min 2 months ago now its at min again the noise is coming from the engine any advise on what this is would be great dont have the money at the moment to get it to a machnic and would like an idea wat could be wrong with it before and how much it will cost before I leave it in

It would depend on what is causing the noise and if it is lubrication related and oil is due for change, it should be done and might help.
