well maybe he does have something to be concerned about if he says its too loud. You could have an exhaust leak and I know that those always annoy me. and of course it would not hurt to have those valves redone if it'll make you sleep better at night. I hope you find what's causing this sound.

mine does the same
on cold idle its not really noticeable
when its warmed up the tappit sound is definately has a louder more pronounced charm to it.
quote:
Correction, I should have said that when cold, the tapping isn't very loud, but it sounds deep. As the engine warms up, the sound pitch changes but it does get noticeably louder.
I love the sound, as long as it's supposed to sound like that. I might as well just take a video of it and post it to see what you guys think.
