Sometimes the car is quick and other times its slower than my grannys zimmer

Also when the car is idling i can here the tapets, lifters is this normal in such a big engine, the engine only has 30000 miles on it and its a 03 car

What does your car idle at and can you here the tapets, the car come with a warrenty but there being funny as most warrenty companys are

any help i appreciated

Those are all symptoms of a failure of one or other VIS valves and /or inlet manifold.
Get your garage to replace them as soon as under warantee
