I'm sure what you're talking about is piston slap. I have it on cold mornings at startup and until the motor reaches operating temp, I'm sitting at 78,000 miles on mine. If it wont go away when the engine warms up, then you have a problem. When the motor is cold just avoid any hard acceleration to prevent any damage from being done.
