Prius 2002 gas engine has developed loud noise

My 2002 Prius has developed a loud noise from the gas engine.
It has 130,000 miles on it.
The small check engine light is on.

Has anyone had a similar problem?

Thanks,
Billy

More information is needed like what sort of noise, revs related, when it's working, when it's ticking over, high pitch low pitch.
How did it start? Have you run out of oil or coolant with it.

You can probably get some good feedback on the fault but a lot more info is needed.
