I have just bought a 2003, 2.7 litre car, mileage 62k and in good condition. If I start it up after not using for a couple of days the engine is noisy for a few seconds and emits a tapping/rattling sound. Could this be the hydraulic tappets settling in e.g. oil draining back to sump or similar or is it a sign of something more serious? I park on a sloping drive. When running the engine sounds very sweet. I would much appreciate any comments.
Any ideas where I should try to get replacement hood tensioning cables (the short ones you unclip when accessing the engine behind the hood)
