    2005 galant 3.8

    Pushrod on cylinder 3 supposedly collapsed. I have found some online for under 2.00, but I haven't figured out which one I need for my car. Could anybody possibly help with which one because I refuse to buy another engine

    We don't have pushrods. The rocker arm itself rides on the cam, thus eliminating the possibility of a pushrod.

    Tell me if you can't view the video, but that's what it sounds like, and a shop literally told me its my pushrod

    Which I didn't think it was because of the fact that I couldn't find a push for specifically for my car lol

    Definitely a rod knock. Full name for that rod would be a connecting rod. Unfortunately, it would require an engine rebuild or replacing the engine.

    Even with it still running, shifting fine, no codes being thrown nothing?

    If that's what it is I'm just gonna attempt to sell the car because it only has 121K miles on it...

    Correct. It's not bad enough to cause it not to run, but at some point, it will find its way through the side of the block, or it will just seize up and lock. The transmission will shift fine, since they are separate components, and you have no engine codes because the engine sensors don't monitor that type of mechanical failure.
