I was driving and all of a sudden my car would lose all power after 3k rpm. It felt like I had a hose blown off. I pulled over and the motor was knocking like crazy. The car sounded like it was dying and it was puttering. It felt like no power. I had some guys come look at it at a gas station and they said it was rod knock too. I got it towed back to my house. I drove it up my driveway, it worked fine. Then i left the car running for 10 mins, no rod knocking sound and it sounded fine. What could this be? My car only has 82,000 miles on it.

Faulty MAP sensor?
