Hi guys,
Been looking back through my cars history cant see if its ever had the valve clearances done?? I realise these are suppose to be done at 25,000 mile intervals my car has done 62,000 miles it has probably been done somewhere along the lines. The thing is the engine is very quiet not tapperty at all and seems to drive fine so would you recommend still getting it done? Been quoted £70 by my local honda dealer to have it done which i thought was fairly reasonable except they said they will need it for 3-4 hrs to allow it to cool down, my response was shouldnt it be left with you over night so its stone cold and their reply was they plug fans in and direct cold air into the engine to get it cold enough apparently?? I can just see me getting it done and coming away with a tapperty engine lol
