Get rid of the 20w50. If I run anything greater then 5w30 in my wifes car it ticks very loudly. >>I recently changed my oil to 20w50 and the clatter went away. Now it started up again worse than ever. Now I seem to get them after a long hard drive.(highway driving.) When I come to a stop They it still happens. It seems like they don't clatter as often in city driving. Also I noticed a puff of white smoke from the exhaust and exhaust smell on the way home from work today. Any ideas? Thanks.
