Has this noise been identified?

So the question is....what is fixing the problem..the oil? or the ecm reprogram?
Also, does anyone have a loud vvl noise when the car starts up cold? I do...at it gradually goes away over 15 seconds or so. Whats interesting is that if I tap the gas just a bit and rev it up say 500 rpm (to maybe 1800rpm) the noise goes away..even cold...but as the idle settles right back down..it comes back.
Again..this noise is gone in 15 seconds or so and only happens on cold starts.

I was not charged as this was done as a warranty item

That's bull if the oil alone fixes the issue. I've only had my oil changed at Infiniti dealerships the last 5 times and I definitely remember hearing that noise a few months ago while the car was idle after driving for an hour. I hope reprogramming the ECU will solve this. Thanks, I'll be scheduling an appointment as well.
