clicking noise in engine area?

Here is my newest problem...
for the past 3 weeks i been hearing a clicking noise coming from the engine, i was thinking maybe a loss belt or fan?... so i took it to the dealer and had them listen and here is what they said "found that it will need an Actuator valve in intake manifold"
has anyone heared of this problem, and would it be under the powertrain warranty?

Oh i have the car book tomorrow for diagnostic.

Yes, but check your plug wire and the plugs too.

Sometimes a wire comes off or a plug gets loose.

Many have had that problem.

check the plug wires ...
if you recently changed your coils... check if the leading and trailing plugs are in the right place

let's hope it's not an apex seal.
