It must be a rod knock. It is caused by extreme bearing damage. If the rod bearings are worn or loose enough to make a dull, hammering noise, you're driving on borrowed time. Bearing noise usually happens inhigh mileage engines.Ithappened to my previous carwhenI have not had the oiland Mazda oilfilter changed regularly.
