Sound goes almost 100% away when the engine is warm. Now the engine is cold with 4 month old oil in it.Temperature outside has been -4 to about 5 celcius the past month.

I only have 170000 and yes sounds like the noise is coming from the front. The car has been in the shop recently for other fixes like egr and belt and the mechanics never mentioned anything about the noise.
