There was a very loud noise coming from engine. Took vehicle to dealer, and they replaced the engine lifters. 5 days later, problem reoccurred. Vehicle has had 4 engines in last two years. On several occasions, the check engine soon light came on. Dealer replaced cam sensor and gas cap. However light came on again. Occasionally there is a rough idle and vehicle feels as if it is about to stall. Dealer replaced cyliner head gasket. Transmission slipping. Dealer found 2 3 shift valves sticking.
