yeah, right now im using crappy penzoil cuz i have a leak and i dont wanna be wasting a lot of money in oil, but usually i use Castrol. Wouldnt a synthetic oil be a bad idea to do this late in the car's life (123k miles)? i hear if you havent used synthetic oil since early in the cars life then you might mess some things up. the tapping noise is always there and doesnt go away after warming the engine up
