For a while I was suspecting that I have low oil pressure.
Tonight I did change the oil to 20W50 and the pressure at idle-warm is higher - 15PSI.
The strange noise still persists. Weird thing is that when I coast without stepping on gas, it is that loud. When I touch a little the gas pedal, the noise disapears. There is no visible change in RPM's or oil pressure, just the engine starting to "pull" the transmission, instead beeing "pushed" by it.
Can it be something else? The timing chain slack? What else can "shift" inside the engine with the load?
