Top end rattle!



  2005 Clio 182
My cars been sat for about 18 months, I have recently got it back on the road but on idle it has developed a nasty top end rattle?! I have changed the oil and filter but made no difference...if I raise the revs to 1400rpm it goes away..any ideas or solutions?
 
  DON'T SEND ME PM'S!!
sounds like the dephaser has got clagged up with old oil while it's been standing. if you get it hot a few times, and change the oil again fairly soon it might clean itself out if you're lucky
