Default cam tensioner

i was told a while ago that i probably need a cam tensioner because of a clanking noise when at idle. it also only happens when car is warmed up, is there anything else it can be? anyways, has naybody had this job done, how much was it?

the part was 360 shipped from worldimpex.com
it took me about 3 hours to do my self.

I would expect about 500 to 750 for a shop to do it.

there is a write up on the board if you search for it.
