Engine Chirping

[James mccrea]

I have a 2013 Ram 5.7 Hemi with 154,000 miles. It had an annoying incessant chirping sound coming from the engine. Took it to 3 different repair shops, no one could tell me what was causing it. However, the last repair shop suggested I try adding Lucas oil stabilizer. I changed the oil ,filter and added the stabilizer.
I use Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage 5W20 and added 1qt of Lucas oil Heavy Duty stabilizer. After 70 miles no more chirping sound. Very happy about this.

James - Did you happen to make a recording of that "Chirp?" I'm still trying to discover the cause of my issue. The sound I hear will come and go, but only when in drive or reverse.
Thanks

Isn't Lucus Oil Stabilizer basically just thick oil with little to no additives?

Why not just run a quality 5W30 or 0W40 and skip the Lucas?

I have used both and would never run a 5W20 in my Hemi ever again.
