  1. I hope wvivary's diagnosis is wrong to.. Common sense would predict that sort of failure would occur while under load but...

    The clatter alone at cold start is fairly common. Your lifters have drained and just need to get pumped up. Could be part of something bigger to, though.

    The easiest thing to do is drain the oil, check inside the plastic oil filter housing and you could also check the sump pan. Any signs of metallic debris could suggest the I/M shaft bearinf is on the way out.

    Good luck
