I love my 2000 Insight. I purchased it a week ago with 35,000 miles on it, and noticed the last 3 mornings when I first start it that the engine has what appears to be valve tapping. After the car has been driven for awhile I don't notice it. Is this something I should call the auto garage about? Help!

I have heard these noises on cool/cold mornings since I first got my Insight. Based on this discussion and the links in it to previous discussions, I decided not to worry.

Try Mobil1 next oil change. I had the slightest faint hint of that occasionally. It was so barely noticable not many people would have noticed it, but I did and Mobil1 took care of it.

Maybe it is just your injector that are making some noise....I send mine to the dealer because of this and they adjuste the valves but still the injector are noisy....
