CRV & Element Valve Job
Dija see in Click and Clack that valve jobs are required / highly recommended in CRV's and Elements at 90K? With so many used as Toads, I thought I'd pass this along. Google it

Click and Clack said you wouldn't notice the valve noise since when they go out of adjustment they actually get quieter. Said it was a "seating" problem... dunno. Don't own one, but was curious because of my Lil Fit.
Fwiw, just had valves adjusted for first time (144,000 miles) on DD's Civic, it's a WHOLE lot quieter, especially upon cold startup.
Forgot to ask mechanic if they were too tight or too loose, he did say 3 of 4 were badly out of spec. though.
