Default 2002 SC430 Lifter Noise on Startup Goes Away

Any thoughts about the new, irritating lifter noise that is pretty loud when I cold start there engine in the morning. Have had the roadster for about 6 months and it has 122,000 miles.

I did not use the car for 2 months while I was away. I'm located in Sarasota, FL.

Any ideas about how I can "fix" this problem would be really appreciated. Thanks so much.

how many times has the car been started when it is making the "lifter noise"? 1, 2, 3,...
Does the noise go away when it warms up?
