Thanks for your input. Since this is an early 850 - it looks like the noisy lifters might be the problem. As a start, I will use synthetic motor oil for a while - maybe this will help.

It also looks like I need to start using synthetic ATF - the regular fluid looks brown fairly soon after flushing system. The transmission is still shifting well.

Looks like synthetic all around - to see if things improve.
