You might want to do some reading in the LFX section regarding timing chains stretching. As far as I know this problem has not been resolved in the LFX or LLT and the recommended prevention, though it is still no guarantee for sure, is go with full synthetic & frequent oil changes (ie: every 3 thousand miles). It is even more important for for cars driven largely on short trips & not used as daily drivers. That is what & do now that mine is not a daily driver anymore. And do you have an oil catch can? Very important to protect that engine.
