2001 corolla Sportivo Turbo with 7Afte motor. Slight rattle for like two seconds on cold startup. Got another 600kms before oil change. Oil changed at every 5000kms. What could be the cause of this?
I had teh same problem on my 1999 nissan pulsar SSS before andi t turned out to be the timing chain tensioner but corolla doesnt have this.
Thanks

what about oil tensioner? is there one or are they hard to change? Could it just be old oil? The oil has done 4400km.
Thanks.
