rattleing on every start-up...

[Dr. D]

wondering if this has happened to anyone. everytime i start my car there is a violent rattle coming from my head and it almost sounds like my valves are starving for oil slapping up and down. now my oil is fine, i just changed it with 5w-30, i am not overfilled or underfilled. kind of stumped at the present time so any feed back would be great. keep in mind that it only happen at start=up and only lasts a few seconds.

so whats the problem? anyone figure out why u guys had or still have this problem? my buddy has a speed 3 and he said his car did that the other day but then hasent done it since...weird s*** man..if some of the cars did it on the same day WTF

Yup mine did the same thing i know exactly what your talking about. Sometimes too it would just die after the sound. Its a very annoying sound too. I took it to a mechanic he said someing about oil pressure and only using synthetic mobil 1. So i did all that, nothing changed and I blew my engine a week later. I know thats probably not helpful whatsoever but i figured i should tell i was having that sound right before i blew my engine. My mechanic is just replacing the bearings or something now and i plan on getting rid of the car.

I hope this doesnt happen to you man

it is something with the VVT (Variable Valve Timing) mine is at the dealer right now so i will let you know hopefully tomorrow.

just got off the phone with the dealer and the VVT is being replaced and new turbo... good day for me.

I've got that noise after I left my car cool down and then turn it off, it rattles and then squeaks. It almost sounds like the turbo doesn't have any oil on it.
