I wondrr what could be different between engine starts. In my case it's not a matter of shutting the engine and then starting it. Some time should also pass.That car just loves you, doesn't it? hehe
(can you smell the sarcasm?)
I've gotten to the point where I'm quite certain what the noise is (mild piston slap). So, I just drive it like a Mustang, and let it scream like a banshee on the back country roads.
As for the thud that Flanagan mentioned. I had that thudding type of tick, which basically followed engine rpm once over 1,200. I think that may actually be the A/C compressor, but who knows? All I know is mine does idle smooooother, and that tick is gone. Only random tick I have now is warm up.
