my 07 has been ticking since the day i brought it home and i've checked the valves since the motor's have a natural tick to them unless the motor is running poorly it might just be normal for ya be careful taking it to the dealership.....stealerships pray on people who dont know much about their products becuase it gives them a chance to get ALOT of money out of you...so be careful.

how loud is it? 400's are known for valve train noise. How many hours on your machine? Just seems alittle soon for a cam chain to be going on an 07'...
Are you sure you got the valve adjustment right and tight? If not it will loosen up cause some noise and can cause other major problems. And yes, they have a normal amount of noisy tick. Its an old design but can withstand some punishment.
