eddie7978 my friend that engine is toast literally. You should start looking for a replacement motor ASAP. As a former Toyota technician the 2azfe's have a oil consumption issue due to poor piston ring design. A TSB(technical service bulletin) has been out for certain year of TC's with this issue. Your girlfriend has been driving with it knocking it's most certain that engine will soon sieze and no longer crank.
