If it's just for a short moment, I wouldn't worry about it, seems to be a normal thing with synthetic oil. All that is is your lifters and so forth hasn't received oil pressure yet so it makes a bit of a tacking sound. I've had that for more than a year with no ill effects at all. 
This is a problem for some of us with Zetecs also. I have had the chatter for over 2 years with no problems.
I dont even worry about it anymore.
