Hey guys,
I've done a lot of reading on some older threads about the MDS tick that is extremely audible when coasting down from 30mph to10 or so. it is the one that will go away when you shift to neutral or tow mode. i've got a 2011 Ram with 93,000 miles. I've read a lot of guys that never found the final solution(on 2 yr old threads). many had lifters and cam changed 2-4 times with the tick returning within 6 months each time a repair was made. Has anyone found a permanent solution to this? apparently chrysler was stumped and in many cases would call it "normal". Normal does not start after 50,000, mile or go away and come back after a repair. Mine has only gotten worse in the last month, very loud. I use full Synthetic Mobile 1 along with their high mileage filter and change around 7,000 miles. Normally i'll be just at the bottom of the safe mark when I do a change. last night at 3,000 miles I was a quart low... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh
