knocking; maybe tapping... ?!
woke up this morning, running late, start up, and I hear a light knock. Turn off, back on and it's was still there, but lighter. Possibly sounds like a lifter knock.
Was fine when parked Fri afternoon.
Background : I've been smelling burnt oil (pretty much since I bought it a year ago) but never had to add any. Just checking earlier this week it was full and a nice Amber color. This past oil change was at Pep boys, (just being lazy.) but that was over a month ago. Temps have been freezing but last few days have been 40_60.
I did not have time to check anything today, just asking if there is anything obvious or common I should check when I get home?
