Great analysis, tho. Did your homework and found the culprit.

If you like the car, just swap the motor. They're cheap as chips and pick up an 09+ for the updated head which eliminates the lifter tick. All of your sensors, electronics and mechanicals will swap directly over.
Thanks thats what i wanted to know, if i do decide to do a swap i hope i dont have to code anything. Ive been shopping around for newer cars so maybe ill just sell it.
