Since the temp's dropped the past couple of weeks, iv noticed that on a cold start in the morning, just after the starter motor's started the engine and disengaged..... a strange noise/rattle happes for approx 1/2secs.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I have an 04' CTR facelift. :?:
Mate, this is due to colder thicker oil taking a little longer to reach the top end. It is normal and nowt to worry about.
If this is normal then why have none of my other cars done it??
And also why isn't everybody who owns a Type-R suffering with the same problem??
I'm in the middle os speaking to HUK about this problem as there are far too many people getting this horrible noise on startup!
Incidentally my car didn't make the noise thismorning and it wwas covered in ice which is making it even more confusing!?!?
