Ticking Valves...
You all know that annoying ticking sound at idle.. I wonder if this works/is applicable with our cars too?

It's not the lifters/valves making the noise on the Turbos, but rather the timing chain -- don't put that additive in your car.

The timing chain sound I'm used to, I just figured we suffered from that too? The only additive I ever add to the car is 100 octane from the pump. Well and a bit of N20

Thanks for correcting me tho!
