I have this tapping/knocking happening This only happens during the warmup stages. Once warmed up, it does not happen. Also, if there is any load on engine during warmup, it does not happen. Could this be lifters, rockers, valves? I would be interested in replace the lifters, but I just don't know if that is what it is. I recently purchased this car just shy of 200k miles. it is a 2017 - YouTube <<< yt shorts link
Nope, still is a thing. Has not got any better or worse. I put over 20k miles on so far. @218k I used some MMO without change. I am on my 4th Valvoline Restore and Protect oci no change. Oh well, I'm sure it is lifters, rockers or valves, but have not opened her up yet.
