1989 16 Valve - loud valves when cold? 700 1989

Hi guys,

Our family has had an 8V (B230) for 12 years, but we recently got a 16V 1989 740GLE and it's a new learning experience. One thing that I can't figure out is this: the valves are really loud when the car is cold, clickety clacking, but get quieter when the car warms up. Is this normal? What's causing it?

Thanks so much in advance!

Henry
