Engine noise (sounds like a diesel)
My 2000 3.5RL sounds like a diesel on cold mornings. It's not knocking or anything and my mechanic at work said it's nothing to worry about. It sounds like it could be noisy lifters or valves? Is this normal for this motor. It has 137xxx on it and it seams to quiet down as she warms up. Does everybody else's 3.5rl sound like this?

Have you checked the motor oil level lately?

Does your engine make a "ticking" noise after a cold start?
