So I was sitting at the bus stop with my son this morning and when he got out of the truck to go get on the bus I hear this ticking noise from under the truck.. I get out and listen and it sounds like its coming from the Transmission.. Its just a steady tick tick tick. Is this normal out of these while sitting in park? The truck has 110,000ish miles..

I've been hearing something like that too, only in the morning when I'm stopped at a light on my way to school. It would be nice to know If i can fix it. Also it goes away when I pop it up into neutral.

Drivers side??? If so your hearing the hemi tick down the exhaust near the cat I bet. Just sit and listen sounds like a soft tick, almost like an older car with a bad lifter. If thats the case its normal, sometimes a change in oil will quiet it down.

I have a '16 and I hear the tick when I put it in Drive or reverse. No ticking in neutral or park. Anyone else?
