I was wondering if anyone knows why my engine is making a knocking/clicking noise when try to drive my vehicle three minutes after I start it? After warming/idling my engine for about three minutes and putting my vehicle on drive, my vehicle moves quietly.

When the last time you had an oil/filter change?

Check the oil pressure if its within specs -oil pressure relief valve could be sticking or lifter/s leakdown problem

Thanks rasmataz for your input to my vehicles problems. Every time I put my vehicle and drive and try to accelerate, my vehicle has that knocking/ sound. My oil an My oil/filter were change about two mnths ago. When I change it I'll ask them to check out my vehicle's lifters as well.
