ok i will attempt:)

Can you descripe the noise your engine makes? can you see where the noise is coming from? is it a ticking noise?

yes its tickin noise.

Sounds like a noise tappet, have you checked the oil levels? is it using much oil? the early 323fs that have around 100k on the clock are starting to become noisy. Is it noisy for about 10 mins after start up then the noise goes?

Its not a huge prooblem but it means taking the car to a garage to have the tappet(s) changed, are you planning to keep the car long?
My advice would be to take it to a garage to have it properly checked out, when was it last serviced?

sometimes just sturtin engine next time later..i just bought before 1,5month.yes i'll take to garage becose and i think that need to change and fuel filter

These engines have Hydraulic tappets so sometimes when you start them up they noisy, but once the oil starts to flow they become quiet again, I wouldnt say its a big problem, something to keep an eye on tho
