Noisey Lifters on Coupe GT after Oil Change
I just got my Coupe back from the dealer. They did an oil change and the
lifters are noisier than they ever were. It took a long time for that rap
tap tap to disappear. The Audi rep says that he noticed it, and therefore
he had added a few drops of Bardol (?) oil and said that it should help. In
the past, I've noticed the noisy lifters for about 30 seconds upon start-up
but never like this. The oil they put in was Valvoline 20W50. For the past
30K miles, I've used the Valvoline semi-synthetic ranging from 20W50 to 10W30.
Can anyone comment on what's happened, any remedies, and should I worry
about it? Thx. glenn
