I've got this strange noice when I start my car. It only happens when the warm engine is shut off for more than 30 mins. But if does not happen during morning start. Thx.

I'll give you the same answer you got from the other site you posted on. The engine has a slight bearing knock until the oil pressure builds up.

I've been asking around as different people give me different opinions. Some say it's the starter, some say it's the timing chain. So I'm a bit confused. Sorry about that.
