I would cut the oil filter open for peace of mind but I doubt you'll find anything. That's a good thing.
Most of the time rod knock will only sound worse as the engine warms up and it will rise and lower with the rpm's.
Rod knock will never get better over time, only worse.

Thats definitely reassuring...I love this car and don’t want anything happening to it! Everyone that has touched this car says how clean and well cared for it is.

I’ve had multiple valve adjustments, and still no real luck! Everyone who has looked at it says the same thing about how clean the motor is inside and how well cared for it is. I’m just gonna drive it and not worry with it. It hasn’t gotten any worse and the car pulls hard!
