I have switched to redline synthetic 5w-30 and initially the noise was dramatically reduced, but has now returned. So my question is pointed at the major gear heads, would a valve adjustment help at all in reducing valvetrain noise, or is this something that I may just have to get used to. It just hurts my pride to know that I paid for an almost $35,000 car and it has "normal" valvetrain noise. Any thoughts?
