97 impreza outback -- initial valve noise.

[Josh Assing]

when we first start up the car in the morning; we get a little bit of
valve noise -- but it goes away fairly quickly -- can we go on like this; or
should we get the valves adjusted?

We all do. It's the nature of Subaru engines

- can we go on like this; or

should we get the valves adjusted?

Only if your mantainance schedule says it's time to.

thanks.

When I started "noticing it" -- I couldn't think of when it really 'started' --
seems it's always done it....

glad it's all subarus -- saved me a trip to the shop.. <G> "Can you fix a non
problem & charge me for it?"
