1st things 1st. Typing in all caps signifies you are yelling...

Secondly it could be the timing chain tensioner, although if it goes away after a while I am not 100% on that.

Has the car ever been run low on oil, has the car been properly maintained?

yeah i apologize, its just that i get fustrated at times, the car is maintained properly, and the car is kept up to date on oil and all that, i will check the tensioner.
thanks a lot.
