Hi, My car has an engine noise when cold. It seems to go away once the engine warms up. The noise does increase when you rev up the engine. Seems to be coming from valves, but I am not sure.

Also it would be a good idea to get the oil pressure tested cold with a mechanical gauge to eliminate any low pressure issues.
