   Hi
I have a 2003 bird and it has a 3.9 engine .On start up the lifters make a
lot of noise,brought it to the dealer and they say it is normal.
Second with the hard top on the top in the down position the car makes a
little noise in the rear like a rattle and have checked and can not find
anything loose
Help if you can
Thanks Pete

How many miles on it and how do you drive it?

Lotsa short trips... or the occasional long one?

And what brand and weight oil do you use?
