First I thought I knew what rattle you were talking about, but the more I read these posts, the less confident I am.

If it's valvetrain related, can you reproduce the same noise with 0W-20 oil as well as thicker 5W-30, or even 10W-40?

I had always assumed that, since the operating range is between 3000-5000 rpm, everything under 2000 rpm is considered "lugging", and that's why I heard those unusual rattles.
