    Is this the hemi tick or normal?

    This is a 2022 Ram 2500 6.4l. Is this the hemi tick or just normal engine noise? I didn’t even notice it, but my wife brought it to my attention. Cold start, phone on front left tire: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pTSHh3qpbbLcDMuIisEt7Tifb4LMClrT/view?usp=drivesdk Video from engine bay...

    Engine was knocking and ticking, then stopped making noise

    So my 2015 5.7 started ticking with a bit of a knock 2 days ago . I changed the oil and there was no metal in the oil. It looked perfect, however, It was still making the ticking noise. I had to drive it 300 miles back home, so I drove in tow/haul mode. Milage was normal, temp was normal, but...

    Slight ticking/flutter noise under load

    Hello everyone, I just started daily driving my 2020 classic 5.7 that I restored from salvage and ever since I bought it the truck has made a slight flutter like noise under load when accelerating. It’s very quiet, like so quiet that sometimes the road noise or even my music playing at 1/4...

Dealership recommends a cam and lifter replacement for 10k or engine replacement for 14k on my 2015 ram v8 with 63000 miles on it. Might just pay the diagnostic and take to...

    "The" Hemi tick explained

    I stumbled on this video that explains "The" Hemi tick and other less important noises, in detail. The comments about fleet vehicle idle time being a definite huge contributor to the Hemi tick are not exactly what I've heard elsewhere and I suspect there are differing opinions. I would be very...

    CHRYSLER HEMI ENGINE TICKING NOISE CAUSES LAWSUIT

    Any idea how long these cases can drag on for and what a potential resolution may be? Any way to track the case? Reads as if MDS is the issue so to me sounds like only solution is to remove MDS..problem is, MDS is most likely how FCA bends over for the government to make their vehicles...

At around 7K miles my engine developed a loud ticking noise (see video). I took it to the dealer and they said it was "normal" ( I have this in writing...

    Engine tick question

    So I know this has been discussed a ton, however most people describe the tick as only appearing when cold and getting quieter as the truck warms up. Mine is the exact opposite. It’s quiet and sounds very smooth when cold but as it warms up and the oil temp rises it starts ticking/tapping very...

    Valvetrain noise and metal in oil analysis - 30K miles

    I picked up a 2019 Classic Lone Star a few months ago and it currently has just under 30K miles. Some valvetrain noise at start up but not too bad for modern engines. However, significant noise is noted at times. Such as with engine cold, when I pull out of my driveway, I have a 1/8 mile long...

    Cam Failure Poll

    Tons of speculation out there, this is just an attempt to get some numbers. Please only vote yes if your 5.7 suffered confirmed cam failure not just some other ticking sound. Let's make some data happen!

    Exhaust valve tick/OEM or aftermarket replacement manifolds?

    Advanced thanks for any input to my question. I have the dreaded Hemi tick and diagnosed it as a broken manifold stud(s), passenger side. It does quiet down by the time the engine hits operating temp. So I'm asking if there are better aftermarket options to OEM headers? Same for gaskets and...

    The Hemi tick. A good news story.

    I have a 2015 1500 sport, 5.7 8 speed. I noticed the tick a couple weeks ago and it’s progressively gotten louder. Reading on here I had some worries it was the lifters. But I took my truck in for an oil change and asked them to check the noise before the oil change. They called and said it was...
