Engine help!!
Yesterday, I noticed a strange sound coming from the engine. I turn the car and I heard a clacking sound much like the HLA noise but way louder. I opened the hood and I saw the spark plug wire in #2 had come off which is really odd. I plugged the wire back in and the noise decreased a bit. Usually I hear the HLA when is time to change the oil, once the oil is changed the noise disappear. However Ive never seen the spark plug wire come off. Today when I pulled in I took a look at again. When I press the spark plug wire down the noise mostly disappears but I feel air being push through.
What the hell is going on?? please help
Thanks
EDIT: the only thing I did different I use 10w30 full synthetic the last time I did the oil change. I have always used convensional oil and didnt have any issues.

Yeah I push the wire down, the noise decreases, and I feel air being pushed through. Im seriously freaking out. Just when I finally pieced everything together to go turbo there's a possibility that my engine took a ****.

Well Im stil a noob. In the morning I checked the spark plug, after tighting #2 the noise stoped. However, how common is for the spark plugs to unscrew?? and how did it pushed the wire out?? Anywho, no big deal I guess. I was really paranoid. Go ahead and flame me
