[QUOTE="rPGoatBoy, post: 1301919, member: 27237"] Look at your cam chain tensioner and see if it has a blue or green dot on it. If not, replace it. Doesn't have to be done immediately, particularly if it's not making any timing chain noise, but there have been a couple different revisions over the years. The original edition CCT plunger wasn't quite long enough and that allowed the chain to lose tension over time as the chain wore. A good time to tackle this is when you check your valve clearances, which judging from your mileage you are about due. [/QUOTE]
