I am just finished my test ride, still oily hands and face, but I had to report first, then wash my face!!
You where right it was the relief valve, but how I struggled to get it off, used at least 1 hour with different wreches from underneath of the car before I found one that got a firm grip on the nut. Cleaned the valve put it back and that scary banking, rattling noise dissapered after a while.
First a lot of noise, then fading away, but after 15 minutes of driving around - then "silence"!!! The engine is as good as "new".
One scary thing is that it was two small pieces of metal that blocked the valve, shouldn`t they be caught by the oil filter??
Anyway, I do not need to buy a new engine.
Thanks again for advices.
