Question: which autoshops specialize in valve lash adjustments on Hondas, preferably in Langley or White Rock?
Hello hello, a friend has a 2008 Honda CRV with over 160,000 kms and it has the regular background clacking that is constant in park at idle. The sound has been there for many months, but seems slightly more noticeable recently. I sent the video recording to a few AI (i.e. ChatGPT) and the bots were unanimous that the sound is the classic Honda tick/clack of valve lash drift.
If you have a suggestion, I'm looking for autoshops that specialize in Hondas and can diagnose/execute this sort of valve adjustment on an old Honda in the Langley or White Rock or Surrey or Richmond regions. The prevailing wisdom online seems to suggest not going to Honda dealers, but feel free to let me know if that's wrong. Thanks in advance!
