Called to get a price estimate on a timing belt, water pump, and valve lash adjustment. They quoted me for labor on the timing belt and water pump, but on the valve lash, they were like "the valves are hydraulic so we just tighten them down." I dont know any better...is this true?

 

No, they are not hydaulic. The valve lash between the rocker and cam needs to be done manually. There is a adjustable screw for each valve that needs to be adjusted.

100% correct

 

The legends had a hydraulic system, the integra does not. What info did you give them? That's weird they would mix that up...
