Hello everyone..just wondering whats going on with my vibe i can start the car the morning an drive off but ive noticed ,what seems to be a slight knock in my motor. not a bad gas kind of knock but more of a valve rattle..so of course i changed my oil today to see would that change it ..an it quieted it down a tad bit its still noticeable....my neighbor has the same car whith less miles but it sounds nothing like mine...do you think it because of all the miles or do i need to give my car a valve adjusment or do you think th rockers are in need of some work.... (99,550 miles).. thnx for readin

with the dual overhad cams, there are no rocker armsSee Baltovibe's pic of the cams on page 2 of the Valve adjustment thread http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=8160
