2010 Ram Hemi 5.7 engine tick
youtube.com
Here is about a min long vid of my engine running. This was from a cold start, I don’t feel as though you can hear it as well until I’m on the passenger side of the truck. I also feel like the tick is more audible when the truck is fully warmed up. There doesn’t seem to be a loss in power, my fuel economy really hasn’t changed much either averaging about 15mpg. The ticking doesn’t get louder with higher rpms just more frequent and then at about 1500rpm I can’t hear it any longer. If I have all the accessories (radio/ heat) in the truck turned off I can hear the tick clearly inside the truck at idle, especially if it’s drive or reverse. It quiets down but is still audible when it’s in park.
What do you all think? Sorry about quality of the sound, when I have my truck back from the shop and if I don’t have it resolved I’ll take better sound clips.
