These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys I only use my car maybe 1 time each week. When I start it I hear what sounds like the lifters tapping for about 5 seconds than that noise goes away. Should I be looking for my check book? The tapping is only on that first start after at least a few days with out being started then it could be restarted without any noise. I just had Porsche check the car out and change the oil , the car seems fine. Thanks for any input Gary

POST 2Original post

When a car sits for that long it is common and not a concern for the lifters to be hear for a few seconds when started.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

One less thing to think about

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
