There appears to be a noisy lifter, my mechanic removed engine sump and checked pickup for any sludge build up, everything appeared very clean, he then replaced genuine oil filter and filled the sump with 5w-30 grade oil Synthetic. Would this still be a warrantee claim? is this a major job??

Thanks

Not with over 100 thousand miles. It's fairly involved, but with the right tools and a Haynes or Chiltons manual, you can do it.
