When I start up my car in the morning, it makes this rattling/tapping noise consistant with the engine revs and piston movments.., it only lasts about a second, my oil light sometimes flickers... could it be that I'm using oil thats to thin? I use mobil 1 5w-50 and my engine is a 3rd gen 4agze with 115 on the clock..

It seems that if I let my car idle down when I get home (I do it most of the time) it doesn't do it when I next start her up... Any ideas??
