Been hella delaying this. I got 37k miles on MY00. I'll probably call you up after the Holidays Joey. Just too busy right now with all the xmas events going on.

Bump for a good guy and great mechanic (oh, and damn good prices too).

Technically, a valve adjustment isn't call for until 90,000 miles according to the manual, but personally I think 90k is way too long.

it all varies from drivers and cars... just because you drive cautiously doesn't mean you'll have the same results as the next person, perhaps you mis-shift one time or another and bounced redline or maybe you just drive hard all the time.... it all depends on the valve clearance, just get it checked you may or may not need an adjustment, but it's always better to be safe than sorry!

just my .02....
