I’m hearing a clicking or tapping noise from the engine in my 2010 Honda Pilot, with 110,000 miles. We’ve found that Hondas do require regular valve adjustments. Honda recommends it every 105,000 miles, when the timing belt is changed. But valves that are too tight won’t close all the way and if they remain open during the combustion process, hot gasses will blow past the valves and eventually melt them.
But at least with loose valves, you get a warning clattering noise, if you pay attention to such things.
