[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 546099, member: 569"] Recently my FJR was making a little extra noise on the right hand side so I'm thinking about the timing chain adjuster. Take it the dealer and they do some adjustments (for free) and the noise goes away. But they suggest that I have the timing chain, adjuster and timing chain guides replaced in about 10,000 miles. To replace the timing chain guides, I was told, you have to split the engine case. Obviously this is not inexpensive. I was quoted about $900 for the work. This dealer has been very highly rated by users in this forum and I have used them for a few years. Generally I've been happy with their work. But I cannot remember anyone mentioning on this forum a need to change their timing chain guides. What do you guys think? 2004 ABS 88,000 miles maintained per factory manual since new [/QUOTE]
