Problem! :( might he tensioners
Kinda worried. I started up my xkr with 6k miles this afternoon. It started sounding like it's a small knock, but went away once it was warmed up. So made me believe it could be tensioners but I had them changed to third(I believe) generation by my jag mechanic last summer. But the car hasn't been started in 6 weeks could it just be the engine was not lubricated? What should I do, I'm really worried.
Thanks for your inputs.

Another knock source can be main belt tensioner. Shine a light on it while someone else starts the car. If it jumps in time with the knock, usually it means a problem with one of the idler pulley bearings...an inexpensive repair.
