Switch to a high quality oil filter to allow oil to flow quicker at startup. The rattle, if timing chain related, is likely one of the hydraulic tensioners not filling with oil as quickly as it should so you hear the chain rattle till it tightens. A higher quality filter will help. Wix would be my recommendation.

Pros: high quality, quicker oil flow

Vehicle: Hyundai Santa Fe

I have used Wix filters. Wasn't the biggest fan of the plastic end caps on the filter, but aside from that they worked just fine.

Pros: worked just fine

Cons: plastic end caps

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

I've only ever used Mann filters and I still consistently get the oil pressure light. I suspect the last time I got an oil change the shop used 5w30 instead of 5w40 because it's been worse than ever for the last 6 months.

Cons: still get oil pressure light

Vehicle: Volkswagen
