Re: clicking
Your car does not have push rods so you have no lifters. You just have a rocer arm that rides on the cam itself. If you are having clicking sounds or tapping sounds then you prob need a valve lash adjustment.

Re: clicking
Any automotive shop can adjust the valve lash. It is actually a fairly easy "do it yourself" fix.
The dealer is always the best place as they have the majority experiance, but any quality mechanic will do just fine

Re: clicking
You simply need a feeler gauge, a wrench and screw driver. Some people use assembly lube as well. The engine must be cold, or you will not set them correctly.
Purchasing the helms manual or atleast the chiltons/haynes will explain how to do it.
