like a tap tap tap noise when its cold?

does it go away once warm?

from experience ( ej22 n/a) it will be a stuck lifter. not much to fix.

or is it a knock noise? any CELs?

If it goes away in a few seconds, yes oil is taking its time getting there...

If its a few minutes untill it goes away then quite possibly its the pistons rattling round (sign of wear ?). Once the engine warms up everything expands a bit and seals up.

tick tick tick = ok

tap tap tap = ok ish

knock knock knock = start saving

klunk klunk klunk = Not too far away from calling a tow truck. From past experiance that is :)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
