Angry rod knock?

Just ran into an issue on a 2-3 shift. Nasty backfire and cyl 1 misfire code, but then this sound was apparent as soon as I was off throttle... This sound like rod knock?

It sounds like rod knock. Does it get louder if you apply throttle?

This is my video from last March. Rod knock.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrjAwnhYLfU

Fast forward to a few weeks ago. I decided to rebuild that motor. Rod knock source video.

Compare the first video with your video. I say rod knock. Have you ever ate a serp belt? Is your front main oil seal intact? Have you pulled your oil filter and cut it open to see if you can see small metal pieces?

Can you elaborate on what happened?

I ask because he is a well known member of the N54 community on Facebook. I have never dealt with him personally but it seems unfair to label him a scammer, potentially affecting his business without providing any explanation.

Are you also from NZ? Good luck with that, can't imagine shipping charges out there.

As for the Facebook community, those guys are retarded
