I wonder if anybody with something like an October 07 build is having any problems?

I know that there was a change around July for the start stop additions (but whether this had different engine parts, I'm not sure....)

Mine is June 07 build and done 5.5k miles. I get the noise occasionally after it's been parked overnight on the sloping drive or in the garage. I can get it to run normally by either letting it tick-over for a few minutes or restart. So fortunately in my case it's too much of a problem
