What sort of sound characteristics do your cars have when start from cold and how long do they last for?Mine pulls like a train and is smooth but sounds a bit piston slappy until the oil gets to about 60 degrees then quietens down then a faint rappid clicking from seemiley behind the dash
any thoughts?
cheers
