Car has 144k Km, always dealer serviced at recommended intervals, oil changed every 8000 Km or less. On cold start (even in warm weather) the valve train clatters loudly for ~ 2-3 seconds on startup. Noise completely disappears after than, and doesn't recur until next cold startup. No other symptoms -- runs smooth and quiet, ample power. Low oil consumption -- uses ~ 1/2 litre between oil changes.
I plan to keep the car for ~ 2 more years. Should I do something about this clattering, or is it normal for Volvo hydraulic lifters?
