When I put the vehicle in Drive with my foot on the brake it makes a clicking noise. When in park no noise, or when I am accelerating at high speeds. Just when my foot is on the brake and the truck is in drive.

Is it one click or does it continue doing it?

It has been determined that it is the cam phazers. I had the oil changed 5 times since I bought the truck back in feb 2009. The last time the oil was changed at the place I have gone for years put in 10w-30 instead of the 5w-20. A week later it started making the noise. The Oil change place maintains that there was no fault on there part even though they put in the wrong oil grade. What is your opinion?

I don't think it would hurt. What you have to realize is that the manufacturers recommend different weigts based on ambient temp. As a resuly, 10-30 may be fine. You really need to check the owner's manual.

Is 10-30 and options? Most likely it could be based on temperature. Check your owner's manual.
