When my engine threw a big end bearing it made a knocking noise and it sounded like it was coming from below the turbo when you had a listen from the open bonnet. At idle it wasn't there but from 1800rpm upwards it was like a hammer was being hit on the block - very metallic sounding. When I was feathering it home it started to bunnyhop so I pulled over and called the RAC.
