I suspect mitsubishi are sending these 'special dealers' specially mutated human ears that can detect a valve clearance out by 0.001mm and report back.
Some spy's got me this photo of them...

How the hell did that little pink looken thing have anything to do with tappet adjustment?
This thread "could" have been a sticky but u lot are a crack up...

Has anyone had opportunity to get a few pics of the engine with the rocker cover off?

4 valves hey did a mn few weeks back and they take 4x as long to do than ml and i didnt have to adjust any!
good to see someone having a go its not that hard. With the exhaust side just us a socket and extension to crack the nut then adjust and tighten the nut back up and check again. Can be a pain full process but its sometimes the only way to do it!
